A novice driver lost control of his car on Saturday afternoon in Silbertal in Montafon (Vorarlberg), skidded off the road and overturned.

The 17-year-old driver was traveling with a passenger in his car in Silbertal. On a right-hand bend, the teenager was no longer able to keep the car on the road, the car skidded across the road and crashed down a slope, causing the car to overturn. 

Fortunately, the driver and front passenger were wearing their seatbelts and were able to get out of the car unharmed. The demolished vehicle had to be recovered by the fire department.
