The driver of a passenger car was traveling on the tram tracks on the Northern Bridge (Skłodowska-Curie). Despite a witness who signaled him that he was driving incorrectly, he drove towards Bielany.

A video documenting the Toyota driver's driving on tram tracks was published on January 13 on the Piraci Drogowi Facebook profile – piracidrogowi.pl. The incident took place on the Northern Bridge (officially: Maria Skłodowska-Curie) near the Świderska tram stop. The recording shows the driver driving on the part of the bridge intended for trams, but luckily there is no train on it. – Grandpa, what the f… are you doing?! – shouts the witness of the event and the author of the recording. Undeterred, the driver drives on.

We asked about the situation at Tramwaje Warszawskie. Tram drivers did not record such an event. – In recent days, we have not had any reports of incidents related to the suspension of traffic on this bridge caused by cars – replied Witold Urbanowicz, spokesman for Tramwaje Warszawskie. – We appeal to respect vertical and horizontal markings – he emphasized.

The services also did not record any dangerous driving of the Toyota driver. – Police officers from Praga-Północ did not intervene against the driver driving on the tracks – the station reported. Klaudia Dadasiewicz from the Warsaw District Police Headquarters VI.

On the tracks on Górczewska, Wolska and Belwederska

However, similar situations do occur. Recently, there have been at least several cases of drivers driving on the tracks. – We had cases of cars entering the tracks in various parts of the network, for example on Radiowa, Górczewska or Wolska, which got stuck and caused a break in traffic – said Urbanowicz.

At the end of November on tvnwarszawa.pl we described how the track on Belwederska Street serves as an additional lane for some drivers. Drivers enter it near the intersection with Spacerowa and Gagarina and move towards Wilanów.

For some drivers, such a “detour” ends with a lesson learned. Cars hang due to the difference in the track floor level.
