Terrible accident in orchard: driver flight injured baby and three adults!

In the night of May 19, 2025, around 0:15 a.m., there was a serious traffic accident on the B189 Mieminger federal road in the municipality of Obsteig, Tyrol. A 44-year-old Iraqi lost control of his vehicle after another car had got on the opposite lane. The description of the accident shows that the driver got off the road with his vehicle and slipped about 60 meters across a meadow. It came to touch with two street guidelines and the run over a tree stump before the car crashed into another tree stump.

All four inmates of the vehicle, including a 26-year-old Iraqi, a 30-year-old Iraqi and a six-month-old German baby, suffered injuries of an indefinite degree. After the primary care, they were admitted to the Zams hospital. Particularly worrying is the fact that the other car involved fled from the accident site, whereby the fleeting vehicle transported a bike. However, specific details about this vehicle are unknown.

Search campaign and call for witnesses

The police immediately initiated a search, which was negative. In order to clarify the course of the accident and find possible witnesses, the Nassereith police inspection asks for clues. Information can be reported on 059 133 7103.

Traffic safety situation and accident statistics

Accidents such as this are related to the comprehensive statistics on traffic safety, which are collected by the Federal Statistical Office. These statistics serve to extract reliable and current data on the traffic safety situation. The results are used to optimize measures in the areas of legislation, traffic education and road construction. The aim is to analyze the structures of the accident and to show dependencies between accident -determining factors. Destatis emphasizes that the data obtained forms an important basis for state transport policy, especially in relation to infrastructure and traffic safety.

Every accident is not only an unfortunate event, but also an indication of the necessary measures to improve traffic safety. It is to be hoped that the police's investigation will contribute to clarifying the incident and other similar accidents can be prevented.
