A total of six people were injured in a collision on the B139 near Neuhofen an der Krems in Upper Austria on Sunday afternoon. A young driver hit a motorcyclist with his car on a bend and then collided with the car of a woman, who happened to be approaching at the same time.
On Sunday at 5 p.m., a 19-year-old from the Linz-Land district drove his car on the B139 from Neuhofen towards Ansfelden. An 18-year-old Croatian woman from the Linz-Land district was sitting in the passenger seat. In the back seat of the vehicle were an 18-year-old and a 16-year-old, both Croatian citizens from the Linz-Land district.
At the same time, a 44-year-old from the Amstetten district was riding his motorcycle on the B139, also from Neuhofen, towards Ansfelden. The passenger was his 39-year-old girlfriend, an Iranian woman from Vienna. At the same time, a 70-year-old from the Steyr-Land district was driving her car in the opposite direction.
Cyclists overlooked
The 19-year-old from the Linz-Land district turned there and looked over the motorcycle of the 44-year-old Amstettner in front of him, just as the motorcycle was level with the 70-year-old’s oncoming car. He hit the rear of the motorcycle and then collided head-on with the 70-year-old’s oncoming car. The pensioner’s car was then thrown into the dike.
Lost control of car
After the collision, the 19-year-old lost control of the car and it was also thrown onto the shoulder before coming to a stop in the right lane. The motorcycle did not fall, but the 39-year-old passenger was injured and was taken to hospital by the rescue team after first aid. The motorcyclist himself was not injured in the accident.
The pensioner was stuck
The 70-year-old was trapped in the vehicle due to the accident and had to be freed from the vehicle by the fire brigade. She was then flown by rescue helicopter to a hospital with injuries of an undetermined nature.
