Traffic chaos in Tyrol: Several injuries in serious accidents!

Reutte, Österreich - In the past few days, the traffic situation in Tyrol has once again proven to be extremely risky. On May 31 and on the night of June 1, 2025, there were several accidents, some of which resulted in some injuries. Security on the streets is an urgent topic, especially for young drivers and cyclists, which demands more attention.

A particularly serious accident occurred on May 31st in Reutte. A 15-year-old Austrian lost control with his motor bike at 7:20 p.m. and collided with trees after he got on the edge of the road. Both the adolescent and a 13-year-old girl from Poland, who went on as a passenger, were injured indefinitely and brought to the BKH Reutte. Such incidents raise questions as well as the fall of a 13-year-old girl from Austria in Brandenberg, who got into a ditch at 5:55 p.m. with her e-bike. So far, the causes of the fall are unclear, but it was also brought to the BKH Kufstein.

serious injuries from motorcycle accidents

Not only the cyclists seem to be in danger: Another accident occurred on June 1, 2025 at 01:05 a.m. in Schwaz when a 15-year-old StA came off the road with his motor bike on the B 171 and crashed into a concrete cube. As a result of the fall, the young people suffered serious injuries to one leg and was also brought to the BKH Schwaz. In Niederau there was a collision between a motorcycle and a motor bike at the Wildschönauerstraße/Wildschönauer Landesstraße intersection on May 31 at 3:30 p.m. Here a 24-year-old motorcyclist, his 21-year-old passenger and a 16-year-old motor bike rider fell and had to be admitted to the BKH Kufstein with indefinite injuries.

The Wildschönauer Landesstraße L3 was closed for about 30 minutes as a result of the accident. According to [meinzirk.at] (https://www.meinbezirk.at/reutte/c-lokales/mehrer-verkehrsunfaelle-am-lter-mai_a7354382, these incidents could be an indication of the increasing risks for bikers and drivers in the Tyrolean mountains.

bike accidents and their consequences

But the cyclists are not immune from accidents either. Last year there were three accidents with cyclists in Tyrol, in which injuries were also complained about. During one of these accidents, a 25-year-old driver in ammass bounced at 12:45 p.m. at an intersection against a 35-year-old mountain biker. This was thrown over the windshield and had to be brought into the shock room of the Innsbruck Clinic with serious injuries. Unfortunately, the mountain biker did not wear a helmet, which may tighten the severity of her injuries, such as [tt.com] (https://www.tt.com/artikel/3088783/kollisions-mit-auto- and-traktor-drei-radler-bei-unfaellen-in-tirol-shin).

In Untermieming, a 63-year-old e-bike driver who collided with a tractor despite braking maneuvers. He was also taken to Zam's hospital. And another e-bike driver was also involved in an accident in Münster when he had to collapse to the Schwaz hospital with a car and suspected of a thigh neck.

These incidents draw a worrying image of traffic safety in Tyrol. It remains to be hoped that both drivers and cyclists will move more responsibly in road traffic in the future and avoid accidents.
