Trailer lost – two drivers seriously injured in an accident on S31

The two cars crashed into each other in the early evening commuter traffic on the S31 between Forchtenstein and the Mattersburg junction. The collision was so violent that a trailer laden with bricks came loose and landed in the ditch.

Both cars were badly damaged in the impact and had to be rescued by the Florianis. Leaked resources had to be tied up.
