A Hungarian driver overturned his truck on the Klagenfurt expressway on Tuesday morning and ended up in the ditch. The road was subsequently closed and traffic was diverted locally. 

The 41-year-old truck driver from Hungary was driving on the Klagenfurt expressway (S37) towards Friesach at around 5.30 a.m. on Tuesday when he veered off the road to the right near Maria Saal for unknown reasons. The articulated lorry then crashed over an embankment and came to rest in the ditch on the right-hand side of the vehicle between the road and the railroad line there.

Fortunately, the driver was not injured in the accident. "However, the truck and the traffic control equipment sustained extensive material damage," said the police. The S37 is expected to be closed to all traffic until Tuesday afternoon due to the recovery work. A local detour has been set up. "For safety reasons, one track of the railroad line has also been closed," said a police officer.

Three fire departments with 25 men were also deployed.
