Box cars in Wiese: Fire brigade saves drivers in Neusserling!

Neußerling, Österreich - in Herzogsdorf (Upper Austria), an unsuccessful driving test on February 26, 2025 ensured a particularly complex use of the Neuberei volunteer fire brigade. A driver of a panel van decided to leave the fortified road at the end of a dead end to continue down the valley on a neighboring meadow. This decision could quickly be proven, because the soft, thawed soil did not stand up to the weight of the vehicle and the transporter got stuck, as both fireworld.at as well as krone.at Report.

The alarmed fire brigade arrived at lunchtime and used a winch to free the vehicle from the predicament. Operations manager Thomas Rath stated that the salvage was necessary to bring the accidentally stuck vehicle back to the street. "Easy to turn the vehicle would definitely have caused less effort," he commented on the situation with a dash of irony, while the firefighters put on hand to save the small transport car that had buried hundreds of meters into the meadow.

The exciting developments and the stress of this unusual situation were successfully mastered by the good interaction of the firefighters. Thanks to the rapid measures, the driver, who apparently made a somewhat adventurous decision, came away with a blue eye.
