Vehicle part drilled through the windshield: the driver was extremely lucky

April 17 will be his second birthday. “The man was extremely lucky,” says the Friedburg fire department. It was around 5:30 p.m. when the emergency services were called to an “accident with a person trapped” in the Lengau village. What they found there seemed dramatic at first.

A silver small car had crashed into a van on the B147. The tail lift of the small truck came loose, smashed through the windshield of the car and pierced through the entire interior. The long vehicle part missed the Suzuki driver by only a few centimetres. According to initial information, he did not suffer any serious injuries and was driving alone. Not entirely alone: ​​the man may also have had a guardian angel by his side.

The police could not give any details in the evening. The article will be updated as more information becomes available.
