The bonnet flies off! This is exactly what happened to a man from Upper Austria. During a test drive with a decrepit Mazda, the entire hood suddenly flew off. But it got even worse. 

When a 24-year-old from Schwanenstadt took a test drive on Thursday in a used car that was not registered for traffic, the hood came off in the municipality of Desselbrunn (Vöcklabruck district) and flew into oncoming traffic.

Driver probably saw little
A car ran over the part of the vehicle. The police also discovered that the windshield of the car for sale was also fogged up and that the 24-year-old may not have seen much during the test drive, according to the police.
