With summer tires
Driver (18) overtook on snow and crashed into a tree
An 18-year-old caused a serious traffic accident in Upper Austria on the morning of December 24th of all days. Although he had only fitted summer tires, he overtook two cars on slush near Eggelsberg, lost control and crashed into a tree. He was flown to Salzburg with moderate injuries.
You learn in driving school that you should adapt your driving behavior in snow or slush. Although it can't have been that long ago, an 18-year-old from Braunau obviously didn't think about it. He overtook two cars at around 9.40 a.m. on Christmas Eve - even though the road was covered in slush and he only had summer tires.
Skidded and crashed into a tree
He lost control of his small Citroen van, skidded off the road to the left and collided head-on with a tree at the side of the road. In addition to the police and the Red Cross, two fire departments were also deployed.
To hospital by helicopter
The 18-year-old suffered moderate injuries in the collision, but was nevertheless flown to Salzburg Accident Hospital by the "Christopherus C6" emergency helicopter. The van was completely destroyed in the accident.
