This incident is in the context of rising concerns about traffic safety in Austria. In recent years there have been a large number of traffic accidents that often affect pedestrians. Statistics Austria reports that road traffic accidents with personal injury are regularly recorded in order to create a well -founded basis for accident research and prevention. The data that the police organs transmit to the statistics daily includes accidents on streets with public transport and are published annually and annually.

Another example of dangerous situations in road traffic occurred on February 25, 2025 near the parking hotel in Krems. A small car drove onto the sidewalk and rammed three parked cars. A group of seven young people who was on the sidewalk was very lucky to remain intact. The driver, a 60-year-old woman from Krems, had probably mistaken gas and brake pedals and uncontrolled accelerated before landing on the sidewalk. The fire brigade and police were quickly on site to rescue the damaged vehicles and block the road.

These two accidents raise a light on the need to raise more awareness of traffic safety. Both the tragic accident with the boy and the incident with the small car driving on the sidewalk show how important it is to be attentive and behave responsibly as a road user.

The enlightening measures of the authorities and the statistical recording of accidents play an important role in preventing such incidents in the future. A better data situation is created on the legally defined basics for the collection of road traffic accidents, which ultimately contributes to the safety of all road users.
