Another car ends up in water near Cruquius shopping center

Another car ends up in water near Cruquius shopping center

A car rolled into the water at a shopping center in Cruquius this afternoon after its handbrake allegedly failed. No one was inside the vehicle during the incident, and no injuries were reported, marking another similar accident at this location in recent weeks.

A passenger car ended up in the water near a shopping center in Cruquius this afternoon around 3:45 p.m. According to a police spokesperson, the vehicle rolled into the water because its handbrake failed to engage. Fortunately, no one was inside the car at the time of the incident, and consequently, no medical services were required at the scene.

This incident marks the latest in a series of similar accidents at the same location near Cruquiusplein. Less than four weeks ago, another vehicle rolled into the water at the same spot, and a similar event occurred on August 12. In all of these cases, no injuries were reported, though the frequent nature of these accidents at this specific site has become a recurring local concern.
