In Seebenstein (district of Neunkirchen) on Thursday around 8:00 clock a concrete mixers lost a fully loaded drum mixer. She stayed on the road of the motorway exit for Semmering Expressway (S6) are.

The 30-ton mixer drum broke up suddenly crashed into the Mittelbetonleitwand and then came to rest on the left lane driveway. The truck driver was uninjured. The fire department had to clean up the accident site and retrieve the drum with a 200-ton crane truck. The driveway Seebenstein had to be closed during the works for a period of four hours
google translate :wink: love the result.

Anybody see the mixer sunk to it’s axles in the roadworks on the A14 Cambridge, Monday :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:

Looks like the mixer plant has separated from the chassis. Wonder if that is covered by unsecure load. :open_mouth:

CSI Trucknet will help in due course.

Austria actually :unamused: :unamused: :unamused: :unamused:

Just guessing, but with my CSI hat on, I don’t suppose that being a ‘Professional’ Flip Flop Driver, he wouldn’t have been Hoofing around that slip road with a full load spinning around that drum, would he ?

Agreed gezt, you’ve just got to love google translate. :laughing: :laughing:
TBF, I suppose it’s near enough so that we can understand what happened, and if you click the right place in the report, you’ll see 10 pics of the fun that ensued once the Austrian fire brigade got there.

Using a little translating licence, here’s my personal effort to help the TN CSIs…

Betonmischer verliert Mischertrommel

Concrete [cement] mixer loses mixing drum.

Bei Seebenstein (Bezirk Neunkirchen) hat am Donnerstag gegen 8.00 Uhr ein Betonmischer eine voll beladene Mischertrommel verloren. Sie blieb auf der Fahrbahn der Autobahnauffahrt zur Semmering-Schnellstraße (S6) liegen.

At about 08:00 on Thursday, a concrete mixer [vehicle] lost its fully loaded mixing drum.
The accident happened at Seebenstein (Neunkirchen district) and resulted in the mixing drum ending up lying on the carriageway of the motorway offslip to the Semmering trunk road (S6.)

Die etwa 30 Tonnen schwere Mischertrommel löste sich plötzlich, prallte gegen die Mittelbetonleitwand und kam dann auf der linken Auffahrtsspur zu liegen. Der Lkw-Lenker blieb unverletzt. Die Feuerwehr musste die Unfallstelle säubern und die Trommel mit einem 200-Tonnen-Kranfahrzeug bergen. Die Auffahrt Seebenstein musste während der Arbeiten für die Dauer von vier Stunden gesperrt werden.

The mixing drum, which weighs approx. 30t, suddenly came loose from the vehicle, then hit the concrete separator and came to rest in the left lane. The truck driver was uninjured.
The fire brigade had to clean the accident scene and a crane capable of lifting 200t was used to lift the mixing drum.
The [salvage and cleaning] work took four hours, during which time the slip road remained closed.

An unusual incident and one that fully justifies an in-depth analysis by the TN CSIs. :grimacing:

:bulb: So, how did the drum come to separate from the vehicle??
