The musical talent was a passenger in a Flix long-distance coach that was traveling from Prague to Trieste. She got on in Linz accompanied by her boyfriend to meet her family members in Italy.
The fully occupied double-decker was traveling on the B317 near Micheldorf in Carinthia in the St. Veit an der Glan district.
Accident happened early in the morning
It was September 19, 2023, 4:48 a.m., a new day had dawned, when the devastating accident happened.
The bus continued straight ahead in a slight left-hand bend; a driver behind it saw sparks flying as the passenger transport vehicle touched the guard rail and then crashed head-on into the concrete wall.
