In Brief
A campervan overturned on Austria's A2 motorway near Markt Allhau after a tyre blowout. The 60-year-old driver lost control; no injuries, road closed for an hour.
On Sunday afternoon, a campervan overturned on the A2 Südautobahn in Austria, between Markt Allhau and the Loipersdorf rest area. The cause was a tyre blowout: the 60-year-old driver from Vienna lost control, the vehicle left the road and tipped onto its left side, blocking two lanes.
Both female passengers got out on their own; no one was injured. The motorway towards Vienna was fully closed for an hour to recover the campervan, causing a traffic jam of about seven kilometres. Around 20 firefighters, the Red Cross, helicopter C16 and motorway police were involved.
Separately, on 20 June 2026, on the same A2 towards Italy, a campervan crashed into the end of a traffic jam: one person was seriously injured and taken to hospital by helicopter C11, several others were hospitalised. The cause of that accident is under investigation.

A Der Standard forum user said they bought a new caravan and are considering renting out their old one (1990 model) via Paulcamper.at. They noted the technical condition and documents are fine, but there are cosmetic damages due to age.
Auto Zeitung tested towing the Fendt Bianco caravan (weighing nearly 1.4 t) with a BMW X3 (about 400 hp) on Tyrolean roads. The route ran from the Ötztal valley to the Kühtai saddle (2020 m) and back towards Innsbruck. Towing requires getting used to the dimensions, but assistance systems such as the Truma Smart A mover (optional, €2,158) make maneuvering easier. The caravan offers more living space than a motorhome, and the tow car remains available for independent trips.
