The TikTok video of the fatal accident involving a mother of three (34) from Linz on the B126 - it has now emerged from "Krone" research that it was recorded by an eleven-year-old boy. The schoolboy was sitting next to his grandfather (68) from Helfenberg in the car.

After the two of them observed a plastic bottle being thrown from the car in front of them, the boy pulled out his cell phone and filmed the black Dacia. He unintentionally and involuntarily documented how the car drove straight ahead on a long right-hand bend and crashed head-on into an oncoming truck. The mother died, but her three young children survived the tragedy - we reported.

1500 "Likes" for the video
The gruesome video was later uploaded to TikTok and clicked on by several thousand users. 1500 even posted a "Like" for it. It is not known whether the boy or one of his friends shared the recording. When a police officer discovered the video in the TikTok app, he immediately took action and had it deleted.

"Taken from our midst completely unexpectedly and tragically at the age of 34," reads the party of the bereaved mother. And, very sadly: "You will always live on in us". The accident victim will be buried in Linz next Thursday.
