Traffic accident in Neutal: mother and son saved from a tree accident
In the early hours of the morning, a serious traffic accident took place on the L233 in the municipality of Neutal, Oberpullendorf district. At around 6:00 a.m., a 35-year-old driver, who was traveling with her 16-year-old son as a passenger, lost control of her vehicle for unclear reasons. The car left the road and crashed head-on into a tree. This frightening situation caused great excitement in the region.
The passenger made a courageous effort to save the occupants. Despite the shock, the 16-year-old was able to free himself and his mother from the damaged vehicle. While the mother suffered unspecified injuries, her son was only slightly injured. Both received immediate medical attention and were taken to Eisenstadt Hospital in a rescue helicopter to receive further treatment.
Rescue operation and traffic disruptions
The Neutal fire department rushed to the scene to secure the scene of the accident. With ten emergency services, they helped rescue the badly damaged vehicle and effectively supported the rescue workers. In order to ensure that all measures could take place without any difficulties, the L233 had to be completely closed for the duration of the operation. This led to noticeable delays in the morning rush hour as traffic was rerouted in both directions via the nearby town of Kaisersdorf.
The circumstances that led to this accident are still unclear. The police have already begun their investigation and are examining various factors, such as visibility, the condition of the road and possible health impairments of the driver. Witnesses to the incident have been asked to report to the Oberpullendorf police station in order to enable an exact reconstruction of the accident. However, thanks to the quick and effective deployment of the rescue workers, rapid care of the injured was ensured, which is very important.
