This incident could have been much worse: When the driver got out on a sloping road in Schwaz, Tyrol, the car started moving on Monday morning and rolled 200 meters downhill over a hill until it finally crashed into the facade of a house.
The 41-year-old driver drove on Monday around 10:50 am on the Freundsberg municipal road in Schwaz and got out with the engine running to hang a note on the door of an apartment. At that moment the car started moving and rolled backwards down the street.
The car could no longer be stopped
The locals tried to stop the car, but were unable to do so. He injured his ankle.
The car rolled on, about 200 yards across a gently sloping pasture. He then broke through a garden gate and crashed into the facade of a house. This damaged the front door of the house, but fortunately the residents were unharmed.
Fire brigade has recovered accident car
The 41-year-old driver went to Schwaz Hospital on his own, where doctors diagnosed a bruised right ankle. The company car was a total loss and had to be recovered by the Schwaz fire brigade.
