Devastating crash
Farmer thrown from tractor in collision
A serious accident occurred in Dornbirn (Vorarlberg) on Wednesday: a 71-year-old disregarded a stop sign and drove into a road: an approaching driver was unable to brake his car in time, resulting in a head-on collision.
A 53-year-old man was driving his car from the L 190 in Dornbirn towards the Rheintalautobahn at around 1.40 p.m. on Wednesday when a farmer (71) on his tractor approached from an adjacent road. Although the farmer should have stopped because of a stop sign, he simply drove into the road.
The 53-year-old was unable to brake his car in time, and it was no longer possible to swerve out of the way, resulting in a collision. The farmer was thrown out of the driver's cab onto the road by the force of the impact. The emergency doctor had to provide first aid, after which the seriously injured man was taken to Hohenems Hospital and then to Feldkirch Hospital. The driver of the car survived the crash unharmed.
In order to determine the exact course of the accident (the direction in which the tractor was traveling is still unclear), the Feldkirch public prosecutor's office ordered the involvement of an expert and the seizure of the vehicles involved in the accident.
