Hit and run
Truck forced into bridge arch by car driver
Due to an inconsiderate car driver, a truck driver had to change lanes in the area of a detour on the Drautal road in East Tyrol. As a result, he crashed into a bridge arch that was too low for his vehicle.
The accident occurred on Wednesday (4.15 p.m.) while driving on a bypass set up by the B100 in the Geselhaus area in the municipality of Abfaltersbach. "A 54-year-old professional driver from Georgia, who was traveling with a truck and semi-trailer, was approached by a car at the narrow section of a railroad overpass bridge," said the police.
Truck driver had to leave the lane
Due to this situation, the truck driver had to leave the lane suitable for his vehicle and trailer (the apex of the bridge is suitable for a maximum height of four meters) in order to prevent a collision.
"The lorry driver then drove into the lower area with his trailer and collided with the bridge arch and was severely damaged." The car continued its journey without stopping.
The Sillian police are asking possible witnesses for useful information at: 059133 7238.
