Date:

A Slovenian truck combination overturned in the ditch near Bad St. Leonhard in the Carinthian Lavanttal because it had to avoid an oncoming truck. About 500 liters of diesel escaped.

According to the first information, the Slovenian truck driver was not injured when his vehicle ended up in the ditch on the B78 due to an evasive manoeuvre. “The driver stated that he had dodged another truck,” reports the emergency services “Krone”.

The semi-trailer truck, which was loaded with wood, will be recovered later today by a Slovenian company. In the accident, however, about 500 liters of diesel leaked and flowed into the adjacent field, the fire brigade tried to remove the fuel as best as possible. “A state chemist will have to look at the meadow to make sure everything is safe,” it said.
