According to the report, on Wednesday evening near Schwarzach near Nabburg (Schwandorf district), the man swerved to avoid a fox that had suddenly run onto the road. He lost control of his car, which then hit the central crash barrier several times and was thrown into a grass verge.

The 31-year-old man, the 25-year-old woman and the child were taken to hospital after the accident.
