Crashed into ravine: Driver thrown out of car
Spectacular accident in Ginzling in the Tyrolean district of Schwaz on Saturday! During a turning maneuver, a German (60) crashed his car 30 meters into a ravine. The driver was thrown out of the vehicle and injured. A helicopter had to be called out.
The accident happened shortly after 5 pm. The 60-year-old was driving his car in Ginzling on the old country road between Roßhang and Breitlahner. "As there were large stones on the gravel road, he was no longer able to continue his journey," said the police. As a result, the driver had to initiate a turning maneuver.
The vehicle overshot the path and plunged 30 meters into the Zemmschlucht gorge.
