A serious go-kart accident took place in Mistelbach (Lower Austria) on Monday evening, in which a 15-year-old was tragically killed. In addition, the driver (69) did not have a mobile phone with him to alert the emergency services.
The girl was just driving her go-kart on a dirt road when she collided with a car at an intersection between the dirt road and a paved goods road in the municipality of Laa/Thaya. Police say he was trapped under the car.
Retiree did not have a mobile phone
The 69-year-old driver of the car unsuccessfully tried to pull the young girl out from under the car. Because he did not have a mobile phone with him, he was unable to call the emergency services and tried to resuscitate the victim himself at the scene of the accident.
Died at the scene of the accident
When he left the scene of the accident to get help, passing cyclists immediately called the emergency services. However, the emergency doctor of the emergency aid helicopter “Christophorus 9” was only able to determine the death of the 15-year-old, who succumbed to her injuries at the scene of the accident.
