Two women were injured in a rear-end crash on the Inntal motorway near Wörgl on Sunday after a car braked abruptly, ORF reported. The driver said its electronic handbrake had locked.
The 28-year-old was driving towards Innsbruck at about 1.40pm when the car suddenly slowed. A 66-year-old driving a van behind him braked hard and moved into the overtaking lane to avoid a collision.
A 68-year-old woman driving in that lane was caught by surprise and crashed into the van. She and the van driver’s passenger were taken to Kufstein District Hospital with injuries of undetermined severity.
On the prosecutor’s instructions, the 28-year-old’s car was seized for a technical examination.
