Accident in Lower Austria
4 conscripts injured at the military training area
An accident occurred on Wednesday evening at the Allentsteig military training area in the Waldviertel (Lower Austria). Eight soldiers were traveling on the road between the Liechtensteinkaserne and the Kaufholz camp. The driver left the road in the fog and crashed into an embankment. Four conscripts were taken to hospital.
The modern VW bus belonging to the Austrian army made the emergency call itself at 6.48 p.m. on Wednesday evening when the van left the road. The 61-year-old driver veered off the road to the right in the fog on the road of the Allentsteig military training area (TÜPl) in the direction of Lager Kaufholz.
He drove over an embankment and came to a standstill in the bushes. The accident occurred between the Liechtensteinkaserne and the Kaufholz camp.
Four conscripts injured
Eight soldiers, including four 19-year-old conscripts, were on board the bus. They were taken to the Horn regional hospital with undetermined injuries. The driver and the other three cadre soldiers were uninjured. A breathalyzer test confirmed that the driver had not been drinking alcohol.
After the health check, the conscripts are already back in Allentsteig. They suffered minor injuries in the form of bruises and are allowed to perform limited duty. The vehicle was not recovered until the morning hours of November 7.
