Eight people were injured in a collision between a car and an ambulance on Saturday afternoon in Mitterdorf in the Mürz Valley (Bruck-Mürzzuschlag district). The 28-year-old driver apparently did not notice the emergency vehicle driving with flashing lights and a tone horn when he turned off the L118 into Schulstrasse at around 3:10 p.m., reported the Styrian regional police department. This led to a collision with the ambulance coming from behind.
