Traffic chaos in the Landecker Tunnel: 76-year-old slightly injured!

A serious traffic accident rocked the Landecker Tunnel in Tyrol on Thursday morning! At around 10:30 a.m., a 76-year-old Austrian was driving his car from the direction of Fließ when his windshield suddenly fogged up. This led to his car crossing the middle of the road and colliding head-on with the oncoming vehicle of a 53-year-old Austrian krone.at reported.

The impact was so violent that the 53-year-old's vehicle was pushed into a car driven behind by a 35-year-old Tyrolean. A blessing in disguise: The 76-year-old only suffered minor injuries and was taken to the hospital in Zams after receiving initial treatment from the emergency doctor. All others involved remained uninjured, but there was considerable damage to the vehicles - the damage to the older gentleman and the 53-year-old was enormous, but the 35-year-old's car was only slightly damaged, as was the case meinkreis.at executed.

The police have started an investigation to determine the exact cause of the accident.
