On Saturday, 5 September 2015, in the afternoon at 15:49, in Palanga, on Klaipėdos pl. near No. 42, a collision with a bicycle occurred. The collision involved a Volkswagen Passat and a bicycle. One person was injured — a 67-year-old cyclist (treated as an outpatient). The accident was caused by the 52-year-old driver of the Volkswagen (29 years of driving experience), who committed other traffic rule violations, failed to give way when crossing an intersection and failed to choose a safe speed. Both drivers were sober. At the time of the accident the weather was clear, the road surface was dry. The speed limit on this section is 20 km/h.
