A driver left the road on the Zudar peninsula and hit a tree head-on. The 76-year-old man suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries in the overnight crash, police said. Therefore, he was taken to the hospital by a rescue helicopter.

Based on information, the man was driving an L30 car when he turned right at the left corner. His vehicle first hit a guidepost and traffic sign, then crashed into a tree. Vehicles involved in accidents can no longer be driven or towed. The Zudar peninsula belongs to the island of Rügen.
