Drifted off in Zwettl
Driver “lost his way” in floods, car swam away
While parts of the town of Zwettl in Lower Austria were already under water in the evening hours, a driver tried to drive into the flood zone. His car floated up - the fire department had to be called out.
It is unclear what was going on in the driver's head late on Saturday evening. Despite flood-related road closures in Zwettl, he drove around the signs and barriers and drove right into the flood zone.
His car immediately floated on the masses of water and drifted through the floods.
Freed from the car unharmed
The Zwettl Stadt and Rumanns fire departments were called out to a possible rescue operation. However, it turned out at the scene that the driver was able to free himself from the car. He was not injured, but his damaged vehicle had to be recovered by the Florianis.
