Tachtigers end up with car in stream in Meulebeke: mayor wants solution for poor closure
In Meulebeke, two elderly individuals ended up in a creek after their car veered off the road. The fire department rescued them, and they were taken to the hospital as a precaution. Mayor Luc Vannieuwenhuyze is considering improvements to the roadside barriers, as this area has seen similar incidents before. One of the existing concrete blocks had fallen, leading to the accident. The mayor acknowledges that any changes will need to be discussed with the landowner.
