Investigation underway – After the accident drama: unrest among bus drivers

Date:

The fatal bus accident in Micheldorf in the St. Veit an der Glan district (Carinthia) sparked a heated debate on the Internet among professional drivers. In the meantime, the investigation into the exact cause of the accident continues.

The police investigation is still ongoing after the fatal bus accident that killed a 19-year-old woman from Upper Austria in Micheldorf on Tuesday morning. While the 27-year-old bus driver – as reported – described grabbing a bottle of water shortly before the accident and losing control of the multi-ton double-decker bus, investigators are now scrutinizing the digital tachograph. . Officials also discovered a front-facing camera in the wreckage, which could potentially provide more details about the exact cause of the accident.

The case is now before the Klagenfurt public prosecutor, who has also appointed an expert. The 27-year-old bus driver was not taken into custody. “The man lives in the Czech Republic and is therefore always available,” Markus Kitz of the Klagenfurt Public Prosecution Service told the “Krone”.

Vortex on the Internet
In the meantime, the accident drama led to a heated debate among professional drivers. It is about observing rest times and manipulating the digital tachograph – but also about how the bus, which weighs several tons, could fall over. The answer to this is probably only expected in the coming days.
