Drama in Bad Ischl: The car threatens to rush - fire brigade saves drivers!

On May 26, 2025, a spectacular accident occurred in Bad Ischl when a car came off a wet road for unexplained reasons and slipped into the ditch. The incident occurred on Engleitenstraße, whereupon the volunteer fire brigade Lauffen was alerted to recover the accident. Fortunately, the fully crashes of the car to the old Traun arm prevented the fully crashes, so that the situation did not become even more critical. A passer -by who observed what was going on alerted the emergency services who arrived at the scene of the accident promptly. The driver of the vehicle only suffered minor injuries and was first looked after by the Red Cross.

The fire brigade secured the accident vehicle using a winch, while the main fire station Bad Ischl moved with a heavy armory for reinforcement. The car was finally lifted onto the road with a crane and handed over to the breakdown service. The assignment ended at 9:00 p.m. and included numerous forces, including the FF Lauffen, the main fire station Bad Ischl, the Red Cross and the police. This information was confirmed by Fireworld

additional accident in the Mühlenweg

The fire brigade in Bad Ischl was challenged on the same day when another accident with a passenger train near a level crossing in Mühlenweg passed. Here a car collided with a moving train. The unclear situation regarding the number of people involved led to an extensive alarm by the fire brigade, including the fire station Rettenbach and the main fire station Bad Ischl. The emergency services also included two teams from the Red Cross, an emergency doctor, several police patrols and an emergency helicopter. Efficient action of the emergency services ensured that the driver of the car was able to get out of his vehicle unharmed. Fortunately, the inmates of the passenger train remained intact.

The car was thrown into an adjacent field by the impact, and a crane was necessary to raise the destroyed car wreck onto a tow truck. The fire brigade quickly cleared the accident site from vehicle parts, and the train guests were brought to a replacement bus with the help of the emergency services. The emergency services were withdrawn when it became clear that the large contingent was no longer needed. This information comes from FF Bad Ischl .

statistical background to traffic accidents

Such incidents throw a light on the general statistics in the emergency services, which are carried out every four years on behalf of the Federal Street system (BAST). An analysis of the operational data for the years 2020 and 2021 showed that a slight decline in the operations was registered compared to previous years. In 2020/21 there were around 13.1 million missions, including around 130,000 traffic accidents. The emergency rate was 97.3 missions per year and 1,000 inhabitants, which is an increase of almost 11 percent. These and other numbers give a valuable context for the missions that, like those in Bad Ischl, show how important quick help is. The comprehensive data are on the website of BAST Available.
