Tragic accident in Scharnitz: 16-year-old died after a car crash

In the dark morning at 3:47 a.m., a tragic traffic accident occurred in Scharnitz, in which a 16-year-old driver from Austria lost his life. The young man was in training for the early driving license class B when he was traveling north in the direction of travel. In the middle of a left turn he got outside the right side of the road and broke through a bridge railing. The vehicle fell about ten meters into the stream bed of the Isar.

The consequences of the accident were devastating: the young person immediately suffered fatal injuries. The Seefeld police inspection has announced this in a current message. In order to clarify the exact circumstances of the accident, the Innsbruck public prosecutor ordered an autopsy. The badly damaged car was ensured to examine possible technical defects or other causes.

Due to the severity of the incident, extensive rescue and recovery measures were started. The fire brigades from Scharnitz and Seefeld as well as an emergency doctor team were in use. The emergency services from Seefeld and Kematen, the Bavarian Red Cross, the Tyrol water rescue and the Innsbruck professional fire brigade also provided quick help.

The use was challenging due to the unfavorable conditions. The storage of the vehicle in the stream bed made an immediate rescue of the aniling impossible, which complicated the efforts of the firefighters and rescue workers. Tyrol's water rescue was also in use to support the salvage and ensure that nobody was in danger.

This tragic incident raises questions about the security of beginners and the challenges they can meet. The events of the morning are not only a loss for the relatives of the young driver, but also for the entire community, which now has to deal with grief and shock.

The background of the accident have not yet been fully clarified. The police are looking for witnesses who may be able to contribute to the way the accident was approached. Information can be reported either directly from the Seefeld police inspection or anonymously via the channels set up.
