Seriously injured
Biker crashes into car from behind on Bödelestraße
A rear-end collision with serious consequences occurred on Bödelestraße in Vorarlberg on Thursday: a car driver wanted to overtake a cyclist, but then had to abandon the overtaking maneuver. An approaching motorcyclist was unable to brake in time and crashed into the car in front of him.
At around 2.30 p.m. on Thursday afternoon, a 63-year-old man was driving his car from Dornbirn towards Bregenzerwald on Bödelestraße, which is extremely popular with motorcyclists and cyclists. Eventually, the man wanted to overtake a cyclist, but had to abandon the maneuver due to oncoming traffic. As a result, he braked and got back in line behind the cyclist.
At the same time, a motorcyclist (57) was also on the road. He overtook two cars in front of him on the mountain road and then got in line behind the 63-year-old's car. However, because the driver of the car was braking, the biker rear-ended the car.
The 57-year-old was seriously injured in the crash. The man was taken to Dornbirn Hospital by the ambulance service, both vehicles sustained considerable damage and Bödelestraße had to be completely closed for around two hours for the clean-up work.
