On June 27, 2026, a three-axle motorhome caught fire while driving on the A9 Pyhrn Autobahn in Styria, Austria, for reasons still unknown. The driver managed to pull over onto the hard shoulder, and both occupants and their two dogs escaped unharmed. The fire was spotted by a police helicopter crew, who alerted emergency services. By the time firefighters arrived, the vehicle was fully ablaze. Crews used foam and a thermal imaging camera to extinguish the fire, which also spread to the roadside embankment. Traffic towards Linz was temporarily closed; the operation lasted about 90 minutes.
