The new Leica facility at
Leitz Park in Wetzlar witnessed the crash of a bus on Monday, January 5. Instead of entering the roundabout in front
of Leitz Park, the driver went straight for undetermined reasons. By doing so, the bus tore down traffic signs
and flattened a tall street light before coming to rest in a muddy field
besides the roundabout.

There were no injuries, but
the street to Leitz Park had to be closed for several hours to allow a crane to
remove the bus from the scene of the accident.
The cost for removing the bust, its repair and the replacement of the
street signs as well as the street light is estimated to run as much as 100
thousand Dollars.

For high quality camera bags and accessories worthy of Leica equipment, go to
I think it is quite funny for the sign on the side of the bust saying "we watch out for you...with safety."
