Serious motorcycle accident in Schönau: Two 15-year-olds injured!
On Saturday evening, June 28, 2025, a serious motorcycle accident occurred in Schönau, Hartberg-Fürstenfeld district. At around 7:30 p.m., two 15-year-old girls collided on their motorcycles when the driver in front suddenly braked. The rear driver was unable to react in time, which resulted in a side collision and brought both girls to the ground. While one of the girls was seriously injured and was flown to LKH Graz by rescue helicopter C17, the second teenager only suffered minor injuries and was taken to LKH Hartberg.

Unfortunately, accidents involving motorcycles are not uncommon. Another similar incident recently occurred in Maria Buch, where a 21-year-old motorcyclist and his 16-year-old passenger were seriously injured. The accident was triggered by an e-call, which resulted in a police operation on Wednesday evening around 8:30 p.m. According to initial investigations, a 46-year-old driver who was driving on the B77 from Weißkirchen to Judenburg wanted to turn left towards Maria Buch. He apparently overlooked the oncoming motorcycle. This hit the right side of the vehicle with full force. Heute.at informs that...
Serious injuries and rescue operations
The motorcyclist was thrown from the vehicle by the impact and suffered life-threatening injuries. He was also transported to the LKH Graz by rescue helicopter. The passenger was taken to the children's clinic at LKH Graz with serious injuries. The driver of the car was ultimately uninjured, but the incident raises questions about road safety, particularly with regard to riding motorcycles in the dark season, since, according to witnesses, the motorcycle had no lights.
The incidents in Schönau and Maria Buch make it clear how important it is to pay attention to road safety, both for drivers and motorcyclists. Young and inexperienced drivers are particularly at risk, as they often find themselves in critical situations.
