A tram slammed into another on Rotterdam’s Erasmus Bridge, injuring 15—with one in critical condition—after the second tram barreled through from behind. The driver, who was among the injured, wasn’t impaired, according to RET, the transport company. Footage shows the first tram stopped as the bridge opened for ships, leaving the second tram with no time to react. Emergency crews are on the scene, and investigations are underway by police and the Dutch Safety Board. Trams are being removed, the bridge remains closed to most traffic, though cyclists and pedestrians can still cross. Lines 3 and 5 are disrupted, and RET is racing to restore service. This tragic accident is a sobering reminder of how quickly things can go wrong—and how much we need to learn from it.
