15-year-old driver dies in traffic accident in Upper Austria: Car landed on roof

The teenager, who did not have a driver's license, lost control of the vehicle after an overtaking maneuver and ended up in the right roadside ditch. The car was lifted, crashed directly into a steel advertising pillar, and landed on its roof in the ditch, according to the police.

The boy was traveling with two friends, aged 17 and 19, in the car belonging to the parents of the 17-year-old. After the crash, first responders and police were able to free the two older teenagers from the car. They were seriously injured and taken to the hospital. However, the 15-year-old was trapped in the vehicle and had to be extracted from the wreck by the fire department. Despite resuscitation attempts, he died at the scene of the accident.
