(km) In the course of the Arlberg Schnellstraße, the cross-section of the road is often changing.
However, since the speed limit of 80 km/h and the overtaking prohibition are frequently ignored in this area, serious accidents occur again and again.
This makes the S 16 one of the most accident-rich roads in Austria and is therefore often locally referred to as the "death route."
The ASFINAG therefore sent a dowser to "suppress" this area, since there are allegedly "earth rays" and "fields of force stones", which would supposedly lead to sudden blood pressure drops and microsleep in drivers.
A four-lane expansion of the western approach, as planned in the meantime, was canceled due to low traffic load.
