Car accident in Kufstein: serious fall offside! Two injured!

A dramatic car accident occurred on the L211 when a 25-year-old German lost control of his vehicle at around 10:40 p.m. According to police reports, the car went over the left edge of the road in a sharp right-hand bend and fell about 20 meters before coming to a stop against a tree. In this terrible incident, two 26-year-old passengers only suffered minor injuries and were taken to the Kufstein District Hospital for further medical treatment as a precaution. The Angerberg fire department was quickly on site to secure the damaged vehicle. How 5min.at reported, the recovery of the car is scheduled for the morning of February 8th, while the amount of material damage has not yet been announced.

Legal consequences for the driver

The incident also raises legal questions, particularly regarding potential damage claims. According to the legal provisions anchored in case law, significant material damage, which can lead to legal consequences, is assumed to be from an amount of around 1,300 to 1,500 euros. In practice, it is important that the exact amount of damage is determined, as this determines whether or not the responsible driver's license will be revoked. Minor property damage of less than 50 euros is considered inconsequential and may not result in any liability Haufe.de explained. In this case, the defense could argue that the repairs required as part of the accident are less than that, which could potentially impact the lasting legal consequences for the driver.
