Question juridique clé
Whether the self-accident constituted a minor or medium traffic violation under the Road Traffic Act
Solution extraite
The incident was a medium violation because it created at least an increased abstract danger for other road users and not merely a slight danger.
Motifs extraits
A winter self-accident on a busy, undivided autostrasse with the vehicle spinning and stopping on the shoulder could surprise oncoming and following traffic; the objective danger to others was therefore not slight.
