Südlohn, Deutschland - Kreis Borken (ots)

An exciting control day shook the streets in the Borken district! This Tuesday afternoon was part of the Europe-wide roadpol control campaign, where everything revolved around trucks and buses. The police called for control on federal road 525 in Südlohn and targeted the heavyweights of the mobile world. With the support of the main customs office in Münster, the traffic rules were enforced rigorously, whereby the northern feeder to state road 572 was completely blocked.

What a shock: a total of 8 trucks and 40 cars were checked! The overloaded structure of the structure, which, instead of the permitted 40 tons, shocked 50 tons weighed special attention. But that wasn't all! A Dutch truck driver had no professional qualifications, while a car from the Netherlands had serious technical defects in the rear brakes, which led to an immediate ban on onward journey. For those who thought they could get away with impunity, there was a hard aftermath: three administrative offenses due to technical defects and three due to overloading, a lack of professional driver qualification and several violations of social regulations.

consequences for drivers!

The police emphasized the events: four warning funds were imposed due to insufficient load securing and another due to social regulations. Safety benefits for foreign drivers whose residence was in neighboring countries also had to be paid. To make matters worse, ten drivers were simply prohibited the onward journey - a real chaos on the street! Control ended at 6:00 p.m., but the excitement was in the air.
