Tragic accident in Saalfelden: two cows died in collision
In the early morning hour of October 3, 2024, shortly before 4 a.m., tragic incident occurred on the B 164 in Saalfelden, in which two cows lost their lives. The accident happened when a 50-year-old truck driver from Bulgaria was traveling from Maria Alm towards Saalfelden.
Despite an immediate braking, The driver could no longer dodge in time because several cows crossed the road. Unfortunately, two of these animals were seriously injured in the impact and succumbed to their injuries. Fortunately, the truck driver and his freight remained unharmed. Even an alkotest carried out did not result in alcoholic influences.
accident recording and road conditions
For the duration of the accident recording, the B 164 had to be closed to traffic in order to enable a safe determination of the event. It is currently still unclear how the cows have managed to overcome the pasture area and the pasture fence behind it. This question raises additional challenges when examining this incident.
Such accidents in which animals get on the street are very unfortunate for everyone involved and can have fatal consequences for both the wildlife and road traffic. Information on similar incidents and the safety of animals in pastures are becoming increasingly important, especially in regions where cattle breeding and agriculture play a central role.
The authorities must check which measures can be taken to prevent animals from getting on the streets again in order to increase the safety of both animals and road users. For more information you can find the full report
