The two vehicles crashed into each other head-on: a rescue helicopter took the injured to a clinic
For unknown reasons, the 32-year-old drove his car into oncoming traffic on a curve on Monday.
According to police, he collided head-on with the car of a 43-year-old woman - her daughter (10) was also in the car.
The accident caused a huge deployment of rescue workers.
All three were trapped in the collision and had to be freed from their vehicles; the 32-year-old and the 43-year-old were flown to a hospital in a rescue helicopter.
The girl was also taken to a clinic in an ambulance.
Both cars were totaled and both had to be towed away.
The road was closed for about five hours.
The police are now investigating what happened in the accident.
