Rammed while turning
Biker died after crash with a drugged driver
Accident drama in Braunau (Upper Austria): A motorcyclist was overlooked by a car driver when turning and knocked down. The biker was thrown against a concrete base and fatally injured. The car driver, a 49-year-old German, had no driver's license and was under the influence of drugs - not for the first time.
The 49-year-old German, who lives in Schärding, was driving from Germany to Braunau on Tuesday evening in the car of his partner, who was in the passenger seat. When the two of them wanted to turn off to a snack bar in Braunau at around 8.20 p.m., they collided with the motorcyclist.
Thrown against a concrete base
The 28-year-old Syrian, who lives in Braunau, fell off his motorcycle and was thrown against a concrete base. Despite resuscitation attempts, he died at the scene of the accident. The 49-year-old and his 44-year-old passenger were injured to an indeterminate degree, taken to Braunau am Inn Hospital and treated as outpatients.
Drugs and no driver's license
A drug test on the car driver tested positive for methamphetamine and amphetamine and the clinical examination revealed that he was unfit to drive. The investigation also revealed that the 49-year-old's driving license had already been revoked years ago due to drug abuse.
