Car completely deformed
Vehicle thrown against rock face in accident
A terrible accident on the shores of Lake Mondsee: a car was thrown against a rock face on Sunday evening, completely deforming the left side of the vehicle. Four young boys (17 and 18 years old) were sitting in the car, the driver, who was driving with a test license, was trapped in the car.
Shortly after 8 p.m. on Sunday, the emergency services were called to the B154 Mondseestraße in St. Lorenz. They saw a terrible scene: a car coming from Scharfling had been thrown against a rock face.
A 17-year-old test driver's license holder at the wheel and three friends (17 and 18 years old, all from the area) in the passenger seat or on the back seat were driving around the Mondsee without a specific destination. Presumably because he was driving too fast, the 17-year-old suddenly lost control of his car during the drive.
Against a crash barrier and rock face
According to the police, the rear end swerved to the right and crashed into the crash barrier. The car then skidded into the rock face to the left of the road and again into the guard rail on the right. After several meters, the car came to a complete stop.
"Driver trapped"
"The driver was trapped in the severely deformed accident vehicle, the other three occupants were injured but were able to leave the vehicle on their own," explains Stefan Sturm, head of operations at the St. Lorenz fire department.
Four injured
The emergency services freed the trapped and seriously injured 17-year-old using a spreader and hydraulic rescue cylinder. One of his friends (17) was also seriously injured. The passenger (18) and another 17-year-old suffered minor injuries, all occupants were taken to hospital.
In total, around 60 police, ambulance and fire department personnel were deployed for around two hours. The B154 was closed to traffic for this time.
