Collision at night
The night bus, known as the “night owler”, was coming from Linzerstrasse and was trying to cross the intersection when the bus driver apparently overlooked the 50-year-old’s car. This led to a right-angle collision in which the injured man's car was pushed onto the 44-year-old's vehicle, which was waiting at the intersection. The drivers' alcohol tests were also negative, as reported by nachrichten.at reported.
The security forces immediately implemented measures to secure the accident site, while the clean-up work on the B1 significantly affected the flow of traffic. Despite the dramatic incident, the others involved fortunately remained unharmed. The bus driver and the 44-year-old were able to continue their journey safely, while the 50-year-old was treated in hospital for injuries. Enormous material damage was found on all vehicles.
