Motorcyclist injured after a failed overtaking maneuver in Nüziders!

on Sunday, June 10, 2025, there was an accident at 7:20 p.m. on the L193 in Nüziders in which a 41-year-old motorcyclist was injured. The driver was in the direction of Bludenz when he tried to overtake an oncoming vehicle. Due to the incoming car, the overtaking process had to be canceled. In the subsequent maneuver there was a side touch, which caused the motorcyclist to get off the road, touched a traffic postpost and finally fell into a meadow.

The motorcyclist suffered injuries to the shoulder and hip and was brought to the State Hospital Feldkirch after a first aid by the emergency doctor. The police started a witness call because there is no description of the car. The driver is asked to contact the Bludenz police inspection in order to clarify further information about the course of the accident.

traffic accidents in Germany and Austria

In the entire traffic landscape, it is not uncommon for such incidents to occur. According to Destatis , the goal of road traffic accident statistics is to gain reliable and comprehensive data on the traffic safety situation. These statistics are crucial for future measures in legislation, traffic education and infrastructure.

In 2023, around 2.5 million road traffic accidents were registered in Germany. These figures illustrate the growing traffic and the associated risks. Most accidents concern property damage, while the number of accidents with personal injury has remained stable. Part of these accidents can be attributed to inadequate distance, non -adapted speed or driving under the influence of alcohol, as reported Statista .

prevention measures and traffic safety

The EU transport ministers pursue the goal of no more racing deads by 2050. This is also supported by the observation and analysis of causes of accidents. In 2023 there were around 15,700 alcohol -related accidents in which 193 people died, which illustrates the need for further prevention measures.

To improve traffic safety, it is essential that both drivers and pedestrians and cyclists are aware of the risks that lurk in road traffic. In view of the increasing figures in accidents, especially with new means of transport such as e-bikes, it is becoming increasingly important to work on safe traffic behavior.
