Serious accident in Obergiesing: cyclist injured, driver on the run!
A serious accident occurred on Wednesday, August 14, 2025, in Munich-Obergiesing. At around 2:50 p.m., a 32-year-old cyclist was injured on the cycle path on Chiemgaustraße in the direction of Ramersdorf. The cycle path ends between Schwanseestrasse and the S-Bahn underpass and flows onto the road. During this transition, the cyclist fell and sustained a serious head injury despite wearing a helmet. The police assume that there was a collision with an unknown vehicle that was directly involved in the accident.
Eyewitnesses reported a driver who spoke to first responders and admitted to the collision, but left the scene before police arrived. So far there is no personal description of the driver, which makes the search difficult for the police. The injured cyclist was taken to hospital for inpatient treatment. The Munich traffic police have now started an investigation and are asking witnesses to call the telephone number(089) 6216-3322to report. T Online reports on the current developments in this case.
The police's ongoing investigative zeal
The police investigation has already gained intensive momentum. The accident has sparked concern in the community as the safety of cyclists on Munich's roads continues to be debated. In this context, it is important to emphasize that the authorities value any information that could help clarify the incident. The unknown driver not only leaves an injured cyclist behind, but also many questions that need to be answered.
There are ongoing discussions about road safety throughout Munich, especially for cyclists, who often struggle with the difficulties of inadequately protected road space. The city also recently announced measures to improve the bike path network, but this incident shows how quickly accidents can happen. In order for a change in thinking to occur, awareness must be created. All drivers are therefore called upon to be particularly careful.

In addition, public pressure could increase on the city administration to seriously address road safety for cyclists. Perhaps it will take more tragic accidents like this to bring about change - something everyone wishes wasn't necessary.
Strengthening road safety is not only a duty towards cyclists, but also an opportunity to promote community coexistence in the city's districts. Ultimately, it's about ensuring that all road users reach their destination safely.
