Terrible traffic accident: 27-year-old crashes against tree frontally!

Mariazell, Österreich - On October 31, 2024, a dramatic traffic accident occurred on the B20 towards Mariazell. A 36-year-old woman and her 37-year-old passenger were slightly injured when an oncoming vehicle, directed by an alcoholic 33-year-old woman, got into her road and collided with them head-on. Immediate help came from a randomly passing team from the Gußwerk volunteer fire brigade, which immediately started the rescue chain. Despite the intensive search, the person who caused the accident was initially not on site, but could be found with the help of a fire brigade drone and a search dog. An Alkotest showed that it was heavily alcoholic, which led to a preliminary driver's license withdrawal. All three injuries were brought to LKH Hochsteiermark. The accident led to a one -hour lock of the B20 in both directions, as reported by LPD Styria.

Only shortly after this incident occurred on December 23, 2024, another serious accident occurred on the B71 in the Bruck-Mürzzuschlag district. A 27-year-old driver from Lilienfeld lost control of his vehicle for an unknown cause and crashed into a tree head-on. Fortunately, he was able to free himself from the car independently and was taken care of on site before he was brought to the State Clinic in Scheibbs with head and facial injuries and injuries on one arm. The Mariazell fire brigade and the executive immediately secured the scene of the accident and rose the vehicle, while the Red Cross Mariazellerland was used with an emergency doctor and an ambulance, such as 5min.at reported. These two incidents are a clear indication of the increasing danger in road traffic, which is reinforced by various factors such as alcohol and carelessness.

The fire brigade also supported the rescue of the vehicles and cleaning up the accident sites. The missions of both accidents illustrate the important role of emergency services that have to act quickly and efficiently in critical situations. The work of the emergency services, as with Feuerwehren.at , was crucial for the quick help of those affected in these stressful situations.
