A 41-year-old motorcyclist was seriously injured in an accident in southern Styria on Friday evening. A tractor was also involved. The circumstances are still completely unclear.

According to the police, a 16-year-old from the Deutschlandsberg district turned onto the B 67 (Grazer Straße) from an industrial estate at around 8.30 p.m. with his tractor and trailer. At the same time, a 41-year-old man from the Leibnitz district was driving his motorcycle north on the main road.

How did the crash happen?
It is not yet clear whether the two vehicles collided or whether the motorcyclist crashed due to a heavy braking maneuver.

It is certain that the 41-year-old biker had to be taken to the LKH Südsteiermark (Wagna site) with serious injuries. The tractor driver remained uninjured

Alcohol test not possible
A breathalyzer test on the 16-year-old was negative. It was not possible to test the motorcycle driver due to the severity of his injuries. The public prosecutor's office in Graz ordered a blood sample to be taken. Further investigations still need to be carried out.

The Obervogau volunteer fire department was deployed with eleven firefighters. They set up fire protection, assisted the emergency doctor in treating the seriously injured man, regulated traffic and cleaned the road.
