"While the number of robberies and dangerous bodily injuries decreased significantly, the number of simple bodily injuries increased compared to the previous year", reported linsner.

Most of the crimes were committed by adults. In 2011, the police also arrested 316 juveniles and 154 children under the age of 14. 32.4 percent of all suspects were under the influence of alcohol. The proportion of foreign suspects fell from 465 (2010) to 296 (2011). The number of residential burglaries has also decreased. They fell from a total of 59 to 34.
The accident statistics in the city developed more positively. "We recorded a total of 2497 traffic accidents last year. A year earlier, there were only 2663", linsner summed up the situation. However, the number of accidents involving personal injury and serious traffic accidents rose slightly, while the number of so-called minor accidents fell significantly to 1,178. A total of 496 people were slightly injured, 55 seriously, and one cyclist was killed in an accident on the berliner ring. "The main cause of accidents was insufficient following distance, followed by mistakes when turning and reversing, as well as disregarding the right of way", described the deputy chief of police. 45 drivers were drunk and twelve were on drugs.
The number of bicycle accidents also increased – from 133 to 182. In most cases the cyclists were also the cause of the accidents. "We are particularly concerned about the number of senior citizens over the age of 65 in bamberg. They rose from 165 in 2010 to 215 last year", said chief of police udo skrzypczak. Most of the accidents were also the fault of seniors themselves. Slight decrease in the number of hit-and-run accidents and accidents caused by excessive speed.
Bamberg police praise traffic concept for state horticultural show. "Even with the bavarian round trip last weekend, there has been no major traffic chaos so far", stressed skrzypczak. However, he assumes that traffic will increase significantly in the coming weeks. But police as well as transport companies and city administration are well equipped to intervene flexibly and quickly in the event of an incident.
