Before Mr. Piotr Krukowski saw what happened at Leszczyńska Street in Poznań, a bang heard from his property. The accident occurred on Sunday around 2pm. In the broken Volksvagen Golf there were a total of four people, all very young – passengers aged 16 to 18 years old. – They were extracted by firefighters with hydraulic equipment. Three passengers have fractures, general bruises of the body – said the younger aspirant Anna Klój from the Municipal Police Headquarters in Poznań.

In the most severe condition was a golf driver. He was taken to hospital, but his life could not be saved. – It was a fairly old car, without airbags, probably without any types of ABS, so he just slipped, flew into a pole and actually wrapped around this pole – described Piotr Krukowski, a witness of the accident.

The driver could not drive a passenger car, not because he lost his right. He was seventeen.

Although work is already underway to change the rules, for now, to pass the category B driving test, you must be of legal age. – Some young people think that it is enough to be able to drive, just “I can drive the vehicle” and they are not aware of the weight of the offense – noted Stefan Rzońca, a driving instructor.

On the hood of the car broken in Poznań was the inscription: “either thick or not at all.” Unofficially we learned that he belonged to someone from the family of one of the people who traveled.
