Driver hanging out of wreck
Accident on the A21: car catapulted into a group of trees
Horror crash on the outer ring highway: A 28-year-old driver from Vienna lost control of his car near Heiligenkreuz in the district of Baden, the Audi broke through the crash barrier and was catapulted into a group of trees.
The spectacular accident occurred shortly after 7.30 p.m. on Monday evening on the A21. A car skidded and hit a signpost. The car then broke through the guardrail, was catapulted into the air and finally got stuck in a group of trees next to the highway.
Accident victim freed from wreckage
A following driver, a member of the Eichgraben fire department and a trained paramedic, immediately stopped to administer first aid. He also managed to rescue the seriously injured driver from the wreckage via the passenger door. The emergency services, who had been alerted in the meantime, then treated the 28-year-old victim until the arrival of the emergency helicopter, which flew the seriously injured man to hospital.
Search for other victims
As a child seat was also fitted in the car, it was not clear whether anyone else had been in the car at the time of the accident. For this reason, the immediate vicinity of the accident scene was investigated by the emergency services using thermal imaging cameras. Fortunately, the fear of finding another accident victim was not confirmed. The wrecked car was then recovered and transported away by the Alland fire department.
