Motorcycle carambolage in Himmelberg: 23-year-old injured in the event of an accident!

in Himmelberg, where the B95 Turracher Bundesstraße leads through the landscape, there were two serious accidents on May 31, which make the motorcycling scene listen. The road conditions seem to be a double -edged sword for bikers who are increasingly gaining popularity. These incidents once again illustrate the dangers that are connected.

The first accident that occurred in a four -person motorcycle group was triggered by a chain reaction. The group wanted to turn right towards Zedlitzberg. The first three drivers reduced their speed. However, the 23-year-old driver from Villach overlooked this maneuver and rose to the motorcycle driving in front of him. This was then pushed against another motorcycle. While the other bikers got off lightly, the 23-year-old was admitted to the LKH Villach with injuries. The alcohot tests for everyone involved were negative, which indicates a responsible handling of alcohol consumption, which is extremely important for many motorcyclists.

serious accident with a motorcycle steering woman

The previous day had already occurred on the same federal road. A 28-year-old motorcyclist from Tyrol was involved in a foray collision with a car. The 62-year-old car driver wanted to turn to a parking space from Gnesau when the collision came. The motorcycle steering woman was pushed head -on against a parked car and thrown over it before she came between two more parked vehicles. The first aid took place through random first Responder, which helped her until the emergency services arrived. The motorcyclist was brought to the ZNA Clinic Klagenfurt with injuries of an indefinite degree. The car driver was not injured, and his alkotest was negative.

An alarming risk of accident for motorcyclists

Both incidents throw a light on the special challenges with which motorcyclists are faced with. According to ADAC, motorcyclists are exposed to a significantly higher risk of accidents than drivers. In Germany, for example, four times the risk of motorcyclists is to be involved in an accident. Young drivers between the ages of 15 and 24 in particular have an increased risk, which is reflected in the severity of the injuries.

The most common injuries that motorcyclists suffer are traumatic brain trauma and thoracic violations. In order to reduce the risk of accident, preventive measures such as wearing protective clothing and regular technical checks of the vehicle are of essential importance. Technical developments such as cornering ABS or dead angle assistants can also contribute to safety on the street.

These tragic events are not only a wake -up call for all motorcyclists, but also for drivers, to focus more on bikers in road traffic. This is the only way to make the cooperation more secure and more pleasant.
