Road accident Forestry workers save themselves by jumping from quad bike near Arosa

Two forestry workers saved themselves on Wednesday evening in Langwies near Arosa GR by jumping from their quad bike that had crashed. The four-wheeled motorcycle then overturned several times down a steep forest meadow and was only stopped by trees after 150 meters. One of the men was slightly injured when he jumped off.

The two forestry workers, aged 35 and 21, were on their way down into the valley on a dirt track with a quad bike and trailer at the end of the working day, as the Graubünden cantonal police reported on Thursday. On a steep right-hand bend, the quad bike left the dirt track and skidded into the steep meadow.
