The terrible accident happened while working together in the garden in Vorderweißenbach (Upper Austria): a 92-year-old was driving his tractor on a slightly sloping pasture, according to his own statements, mixed up the pedals – and ran into his partner ( 77) with the tipping body mounted on the vehicle.
According to information from the police, the 77-year-old was pushed over a 50 centimeter high stone wall during the accident and was seriously injured. The rescue helicopter took her to hospital where she received further treatment.
