As reported by "Krone", the mass accident occurred in oncoming traffic with only one lane at a time. In addition to the politician's coach, a truck and a van were involved in the incident. The other two vehicles were also from Poland.
13 injured people taken to several hospitals
All help came too late for the driver of the van, who died in the wreck at the scene. The coach driver and the truck driver were also injured, as were eleven of the 24 passengers in the politicians' delegation.
Some of the victims were taken by rescue helicopter to hospitals in Poland and the Czech Republic. There is great concern in Poland, and the embassy in Vienna is also involved.
