On February 12, a bus accident occurred in a wooded area between Łochów and Wyszków in Mazovia, Poland, involving a vehicle that overturned, leading to multiple injuries. According to police reports, the 53-year-old bus driver attempted to avoid a collision with a forest animal, likely a deer, causing him to veer off the road into a ditch where the bus ultimately overturned. The incident has been compounded by difficult weather conditions at the time.

As a result of the accident, around 20 people sustained injuries, and emergency services were quick to respond, providing medical assistance to the victims. Among the passengers, 19 individuals were reported to have been hospitalized for their injuries. The bus was carrying a total of 31 passengers plus the driver, making the situation critical given the number of injured.

This accident raises concerns surrounding road safety and the dangers posed by wildlife crossings, especially under adverse weather conditions. Local authorities may need to reevaluate safety measures and driver training regarding such incidents in order to prevent future occurrences and ensure passenger safety.
