Several accidents involving two-wheelers occurred in Lower Austria on Friday, resulting in injuries. A motorcyclist was hit by a car in the Baden district, and a 43-year-old died after falling on Vienna’s outer ring road.
A serious traffic accident took place in the Unterwaltersdorf district of the Baden district around 4:30 p.m. A motorist drove his vehicle from the center and wanted to drive into the gas station. He may have overlooked an approaching motorcyclist and subsequently hit him.
The cyclist suffered serious injuries. He received first aid from paramedics from the Ebreichsdorf Samaritan Association and the rescue helicopter team and was then flown to hospital. The driver of the car was uninjured.
Fatal fall
A tragic accident took place on Vienna’s outer ring highway (S1) on Friday morning. A motorcyclist was driving in the direction of Schwechat when, for unknown reasons, he fell into a right bend in the municipality of Rannersdorf in the Bruck an der Leitha district. First aiders resuscitated the 43-year-old driver, but all help came too late for him. The motorcyclist died at the scene of the accident, police said.
Accident with moped handlebars
In the evening hours, another accident involving a moped rider took place in the Waldviertel. The 64-year-old from the Zwettl district was riding his two-wheeler on the L8260 from Niedernondorf towards Niederwaltenreith in the Zwettl district. At the start of Niederwaltenreith, the front wheel of the moped slipped, causing the handlebars to fall. The man was transported by lifebuoy to Zwettl State Hospital. An alcohol test conducted was positive, according to the police.
