Escape home – no sign of the handlebars after a serious accident


For a serious accident, emergency services were called in Reichenau an der Rax in the Neunkirchen district: A car was on the embankment, only trees prevented the crash into the Schwarza. But initially there was no trace of the handlebars. It was only hours later that he was found at his home address.

The accident is likely to have occurred shortly after midnight on Sunday. Immediately afterwards, however, the driver should already have run away. While the fire brigade was recovering the badly demolished accident vehicle, the police started the investigation. This led them to the 24-year-old registration owner, who could be found at home a few hours later. He must have been unharmed and possibly drunk.

A serious accident also happened in Krems on Saturday afternoon. A Unimog broke through a fence and overturned. The driver survived the incident almost unharmed, but the rescue posed a challenge for the fire brigade. It took four hours before the vehicle could be set up again after a laborious effort.
