The man, who comes from the St. Veit district on the Glan, drove on Goggauseestrasse (L 80) and touched a truck parking at the level of the marketplace. There was a side touch between the man's car and the truck, which led to slight damage to both vehicles. Fortunately, everyone involved was unharmed.
