On August 27, 2025, a traffic accident occurred at Holstentor in Lübeck involving a city bus and a VW Passat. According to the Police Directorate Lübeck and news aktuell, the incident took place when the 75-year-old driver of the VW Passat, hailing from Leipzig, made an illegal lane change without intending to turn left.
