Technical defect on B36: Fire brigade eliminates diesel lane after accident!

Waidhofen an der Thaya, Österreich - An eventful day in Waidhofen an der Thaya! On January 10, 2025, there were several operations from the fire brigade, which had to deal with both technical problems and traffic accidents. At 9:28 a.m., the volunteer fire brigade's forces were called for a traffic accident on the B36, "Bittner crossing", where a vehicle had overturned after a side collision. The driver of a Seat Alhambra was on the main road from Waidhofen in the direction of Vitis when a car coming from the right took his right of way and touched him on the side. As a result, the Seat overturned, got off the road and came to a standstill on the bikes. The driver was slightly injured and went to the hospital independently, while the other driver remained unharmed, such as fireworld.at reported.

While the fire brigade was in use at the scene of the accident, another alarm ran in the urban area. The driver of a VW Golf had a technical defect on the B36, shortly before Waidhofen, which caused diesel to escape from the vehicle. The driver only noticed the problem at the parking lot of the Thayapark shopping center and immediately alerted the fire brigade. The emergency services tied the leaked diesel under the vehicle with oil binder and placed a tarpaulin underneath. The diesel lane run through various streets, including Brunner Straße and Thayaparkstrasse. The pollution was particularly strong in the crossing areas, which the fire brigade divided into several teams in order to quickly bring about a solution. The assignment was successfully completed at 12:45 p.m., as Noen.at reported.
