A spectacular accident occurred on Sunday at noon in Graz: A car came off the street and landed on the roof of a public park. The driver was injured. Luckily nothing else happened to anyone.
The accident in Graz-Waltendorf could have ended badly. The force of the impact tore a park bench from its anchorage. I can’t imagine what could have happened if people had been in that area …
The driver was trapped in the car and had to be freed by the Graz professional fire brigade. After receiving first aid from an emergency doctor, he was taken to hospital by the Red Cross. How badly he was injured is still unclear. But he should have been approachable. The car was taken away by a towing service.
