When Blue-Black comes, Speed 150 comes on the highway-the new razor law only eleven months ago. A first conclusion of the law is ambiguous: there are less dead but more injuries. In the upper Austria, 18 vehicles were temporarily seized by the end of the year.
With a maximum of 250 km/h, a 20-year-old Friday evening fled to the police on Friday evening before he poured a civilian patrol in Traun. In fact, a clear argument for the razor -age law, according to which cars can generally be seized at extreme speed and, in the extreme case, can also be auctioned.
But the Hungarian was allowed to keep his racing car. Reason: because the car is a total damage, the racer is already separated from its tutorial tool, so the meaning of the new law is fulfilled.
Eleven percent fewer road deaths …
In a total of 18 cases in the previous year in Upper Austria, however, vehicles were temporarily collected by razors because the law was valid from 1 March. A first record from the Ministry of Climate is positive on the request of “Krone”: “Since the Rapid package was put into operation, the number of serious accidents has fallen considerably due to too high a speed.”
In the first three quarters in 2024 there were 281 letters in 2024 by eleven percent fewer than in the previous and after the Pandemie-years 2020 and 2021 the lowest value since the start of the recordings. In the upper Austria, the fall from 9.7 percent to 56 deaths was equally strong.
… but six percent more injuries
However, the number of injury to accidents increased by six percent in Austria and reached the highest value since 2017 by 36,351.
A glance at the supposed main causes of the most important accident of the statistics that is Austria is also interesting: a quarter (25.2 percent) of the fatal accidents was in the first three quarters of the previous year with “non -approached speed “. In 2023 it was more at 27 percent, but in 2022 it was less less (22.6 percent).
