Illegal motorcycle
17-year-old seriously injured during “wheelie”
An illegal joyride ended fatally for a 17-year-old in Mitterdorf-Raab on Friday evening. He lost control of his motocross motorcycle when he tried to do a wheelie. He crashed into a tree and was seriously injured.
At half past six in the evening, the 17-year-old from the district of Weiz was riding his motorcycle on the municipal road in Pichl an der Raab. Not only was it a motocross vehicle that was not licensed for traffic, the teenager was also performing dangerous stunts on it.
17-year-old crashed into a tree
In a wooded area, he performed a "wheelie" - lifting the front wheel off the ground. However, the 17-year-old lost control and crashed into a tree. Fortunately, he was wearing a helmet, but he suffered serious injuries to his hips. He was taken to the pediatric surgery ward at Graz Regional Hospital.
Driving without a license
As it turned out, the motorcyclist did not have a valid driving license for the motorcycle. An alcohol test could not be carried out due to the severity of the injury.
