In the Vienna MuseumsQuartier, a motorist hit a cyclist (32) so hard that he died of his injuries in hospital. At that moment, however, the traffic lights indicated that both could travel freely…
“They both had green lights,” said several shocked eyewitnesses to the horrific accident in Vienna-Mariahilf in the presence of police officers who had to record the drama.
The cyclist encountered oncoming traffic
The first findings of the traffic accident police showed that the driver (30) turned left from Babenbergerstrasse onto Getreidemarkt. In oncoming traffic, the cyclist came towards him – driving straight ahead from the meeting zone there and also at full speed.
At the intersection, a collision occurred that was so violent that the motorcyclist was thrown to the ground and remained lying on the asphalt, seriously injured, bleeding and barely responsive. The professional rescue service of Vienna was very quickly present at the scene of the drama and provided emergency medical care.
Cyclist died in hospital
A few minutes later, the victim was on his way to a hospital. Resuscitation attempts continued there. But all the skill of the attending physicians and their teams was in vain. The man could no longer be saved from death. The investigation into the accident is ongoing.
