What a bad surprise for this motorist on this last day of the year. As he left the center of Leers-Nord and entered the rue du Centre, he was surprised by a somewhat unusual obstacle…
Indeed, just before the narrowing almost in front of the Red Cross, which serves as a parking lot for residents, a construction machine was abandoned during the night, or in the early morning. According to our information, the vehicle, which was stolen from a nearby construction site, ran out of gas. Unable to go any further, the construction machine was abandoned at this location, blocking the street… It was not until the owner of the latter arrived that the road could once again be accessible to motorists.
As for the driver of the car, he explained that he had not seen the digger and came and crashed into the front of it. It must be said that the brightness and the weather conditions did not help him. Fortunately, he was traveling at low speed, which made it possible to avoid the worst. Other than heavy property damage, no one was injured.
