DE FALOM – A police car was hit on Thursday while protecting a traffic accident on the Centrale As near De Falom. The police car, equipped with flashing orange lights, was positioned to assist a recovery vehicle in safely removing a car from the ditch.
During this work, a traffic jam arose in which a motorist skidded at a relatively low speed and collided with the police car.
The police car was strategically placed in the so-called ‘Fend-off’ position to protect both the recovery vehicle and road users.
It is not the first time such an incident has occurred. In July of last year, a van collided with a stationary police car on the N31, seriously injuring an officer from the police station in Burgum.
Two accidents took place on the Central As this morning. In both accidents, everyone involved escaped unscathed.
On the basis of a file that was very sloppily put together, a 28-year-old man was acquitted on Thursday of assault with a beer bottle.
In the coastal areas it can become treacherously slippery on Wednesday evening after 10 p.m.
