Traffic chaos on the highway: 14 trucks with serious defects!

A61, Deutschland - 🚨 On the A61 it was hot in the afternoon! The Mainz traffic directorate and the Bad Kreuznach police carried out massive controls and uncovered numerous blatant violations! 26 vehicles, including 15 trucks and vans, were targeted, and the balance could not be more alarming: there were serious complaints on 14 vehicles!

drivers who did not stick to overtaking or did much too tight were only the tip of the iceberg. The technical defects were shocking. A small van had a tire that was so worn out that his fabric became visible! The driver could have ended without this intervention in a dangerous accident. And as if that weren't enough: In another van, three people sat on an unsecured back seat - lots in the loading space! The onward journey was immediately prohibited!

But the controls did not stop here! A driver was even under the influence of cannabis and also had to do without the immediate journey. The list of violations ranges from overloading to dimensioning problems to defective load securing and dangerous tuning! In all cases, administrative offenses are now followed - the consequences can become sensitive!

The police have set a clear sign: security on the streets has top priority! Monitoring and control are essential to combat such scandalous grievances! Anyone who thinks that they can continue to ignore the regulations is violent!
