Rear-end collision on A14
Four vehicles pushed into each other on the highway
On Friday morning, there was a rear-end collision involving four cars on the A14 Rhine Valley highway (Vorarlberg). Fortunately, only one person was injured in the accident.
At around 7.45 a.m. on Friday morning, there was an increase in traffic on the Rhine Valley highway near Hohenems in the direction of Tyrol and a traffic jam formed. A 75-year-old driver apparently failed to see this and drove into the queue. The massive impact with the rear of a 45-year-old man's car caused his vehicle to crash into the car in front of him. This car was also pushed forward into another vehicle by the force of the collision.
Luck in misfortune
Only the passenger of the 45-year-old was slightly injured in the accident, everyone else survived unharmed. A breathalyzer test was carried out on all the drivers. The driver of the third car involved was found to be under the influence of alcohol. He must expect to be reported to the police.
The overtaking lane of the Rheintalautobahn had to be closed in the area of the crash from 7.50 a.m. to 8.50 a.m. for the accident to be recorded, for the cars involved to be loaded and for the subsequent clean-up work.
