Police are dispersing the crowd in the Loolaan area of Apeldoorn.
The mayor of Apeldoorn announced shortly after the incident that the festivities in the city have been cancelled.
Eye witnesses speculated that the accident may have been an attempted attack on the Royal Family.
Others say that the car went off course with a shattered windscreen and that the driver appeared to be slumped motionless over the wheel.
The vehicle came to a halt after crashing into a monument (pictured right).

The incident occurred minutes after a luxury open-top coach carrying the Royal Family passed the spot (pictured below).
The coach briefly stopped and was then accompanied to Het Loo palace by security forces.
Queen Beatrix has sent a message expressing her sympathy to the victims.
The government information service says the queen and her family are deeply shocked by the incident.

Never knew The Netherlands had a Royal Family.

Still, it's a shame one person's idiocy has led to the deaths of several people. Let's see how long he/she gets behind bars.

nope. He was after the royal family. The Suzuki Swift was already badly damaged, as you can see on the video, and the driver was already badly injured before he hit the monument.

The driver has died already because of his injuries, there is still 1 person in critical condition in the hospital

The suzuki was damaged because of the fences and people, those people are death weight of 80kg, it's a huge impact when he was driving ~80kmh
