Shocking motorcycle accidents: two drivers seriously injured!

On July 18, 2025, there were a number of traffic accidents in Tyrol, which clearly showed the risk and the dangers of motorcycling. Motorcyclists were involved in several incidents, and while some of them were seriously injured, other participants remained unharmed.

The first accident occurred around 2:00 p.m. on the municipal road between Breitenbach and Oberberg. A 59-year-old German motorcyclist collided frontally with a car that was directed by a 35-year-old Austrian who was traveling with three children. The motorcyclist fell and suffered serious foot injuries. After the primary care, he was admitted to the Kufstein district hospital. The car driver and her children were very lucky and remained unharmed.

other accidents and their causes

Already in the afternoon, around 1:00 p.m., there was also another incident on the B165 in Hainzenberg. A motorcyclist lost control in a curve due to stones on the road and landed in the adjacent banquet. With minor injuries, he was brought to a doctor by the emergency services. In this case, the damage to the motorcycle is considerable, so it had to be towed.

risks when driving motorcycles and safety tips

These events throw a light on the dangers of motorcycling, which have already been illuminated by the ADAC accident analysis. The ADAC shows that motorcyclists have a four -time risk of being involved in an accident compared to drivers. A cyclist is involved in every fourth accident, and more than a third of these accidents are sole accidents, which underlines the urgency of security measures. Autohaus reports that young motorcyclists are particularly at risk.

In order to avoid accidents, the ADAC recommends wearing protective equipment, regular vehicle checks and the completion of driving safety training. Technical improvements to motorcycles such as cornering and traction control could also contribute to avoiding accident. Finally it says: “Driving defensively” should be the top priority for all motorcyclists.

summarized: These incidents are a wake -up call for all motorcyclists to be aware of the risks and to take suitable measures for more security on the streets. So that the fun of driving does not become an unnecessary risk, it is important to take both your own security and that of fellow human beings seriously.

By understanding the dangers and approaching the matter with a solid preparation, the number of accidents could be reduced in the future. The ADAC shows that prevention is the key to mastering a wide variety of challenges in road traffic. ADAC suggests: "Information, practice"-for a carefree driving experience!
