Serious accident in Bad Mitterndorf: Two cars crash together head -on!

Bad Mitterndorf, Österreich - in Bad Mitterndorf there was a serious traffic accident on the Salzkammergutbundesstraße (B145) on June 1, 2025, which involves two vehicles around 12:30 p.m. The cars hit each other at a petrol station, whereby the exact cause of the accident has so far remained unknown, as reported. Fortunately, all inmates of the vehicles were able to leave their cars independently. A family of holidaymakers from Graz was among those involved. The father was slightly injured, while the mother and her two -year -old son were brought to the State Hospital (LKH) Bad Aussee for a precautionary examination. Another person from Salzburg suffered serious injuries and was also transported to the LKH Bad Aussee after first medical care. It should be noted positively that a dog who was in the vehicle survived the accident almost unharmed.

emergency services on site

The Bad Mitterndorf volunteer fire brigade moved in with an HLF3, a truck and ten emergency services. Their tasks included the construction of a local diversion, the support of the Red Cross, securing the accident site and cleaning the roadway. The Red Cross was also on site with two rescue transport vehicles and an emergency doctor (NEF), while the police secured the operation with three radio patrol cars. A towing company finally took over the rescue of the damaged vehicles.

Traffic on the B145 was completely blocked during use in this area, so that the establishment of a local detour was necessary. This shows how important the rapid reaction of the rescuers was to ensure the safety of all road users.

context for similar missions

Similar situations have been observed on the B145 in the past. A younger incident occurred, for example, on September 14, 2023, when the fire station Reitndorf was alerted to clean -up work after a traffic accident, in which a car came off the road due to unknown cause and came to a very damaged manner in the embankment. Here, too, several emergency services were necessary to secure the scene of the accident and bind the leaked operating fluids, which illustrates the challenge of such operations. Feuerwehren emphasizes how important a rapid and effective coordination of the emergency services is in such cases.

The current accident in Bad Mitterndorf once again shows how unpredictable road traffic can be. It remains to be hoped that the injured can recover quickly and that such incidents can be avoided in the future.
