On Saturday afternoon, April 27, 2025, the police and emergency services were called to the L11 between Nideggen and Nideggen-Brück. A dramatic accident had occurred when a 61-year-old motorcyclist from the Netherlands lost control of his vehicle. He fell and collided with the guardrail, which led to serious injuries. According to Heinsberg Magazin the man was already treated in the ambulance and then hospitalized in hospital.
The police arrived at the scene of the accident at 2:05 p.m. The driver's motorcycle was badly damaged and had to be removed from a towing service. The L11 was completely closed during the rescue work, and the investigators of the traffic commissioner were commissioned to clarify the exact circumstances of the accident.

The AGGER curves, a popular place for motorcyclists, are also known for risky driving behavior. In this case, the police ruled out superior driving, but considered excessive speed to be a possible cause of the accident. The Aprilia has a top speed of 110 km/h, while a speed limit of 60 km/h applies on the L323.
The streets were closed in both directions during the accident. The fire brigade and rescue workers were on site after a burning motorcycle had initially been reported. It turned out that the machine was actually slightly on fire and the fire brigade had to cool the engine block to avoid further damage.

A main problem is the non -adapted speed, which is responsible for 53 percent of the accidents. Other causes are distraction and carelessness. The VCÖ urgently calls for increased measures to improve security for motorcyclists, especially on dangerous routes.
The latest accidents should serve as a warning to raise awareness of traffic safety. Motorcyclists and other road users are well advised to always stick to speed limits and drive carefully to ensure safety on the streets.
