Truck on fire
The night was lit up by a fire on the highway
It was a flash of fire that lit up the highway near Sattledt on Tuesday night and also showed the fire department and police the way to the scene: a truck went up in flames on the Westautobahn near Sattledt. Fortunately, the driver (59) was able to save himself.
Three fire departments were deployed on Monday evening on the A1 Westautobahn at the Voralpenkreuz junction in the municipality of Sattledt (Wels-Land district) because a truck was on fire. The flames had started in the driver's cab; according to experts, there was a defect - the driver from Linz was able to stop in time and flee.
Tires and packages loaded
On Monday evening, a truck carrying parcels as well as many tires went up in flames on the A1 Westautobahn near the Voralpenkreuz junction in the direction of Salzburg, near Sattledt. It was fully engulfed in flames within a few minutes. It was possible to prevent the fire from spreading to the trailer, which was then pulled away from the burning vehicle by the fire department using a cable winch.
Flames damaged toll bridge
The truck driver was apparently uninjured. The fire department alerted other forces, and a total of three fire departments, highway police, Asfinag and a recovery company were deployed. A toll bridge over the highway was also severely damaged by the fire.
