Intoxicated drivers pulled out of traffic: large checks in Herbrechtingen!

The police broke up on Wednesday in the afternoon hours at large checks in Herbrechtingen and Gerstetten how important the monitoring of drivers under the influence of drugs and alcohol is. A total of 119 vehicles and 136 people were checked at two checkpoints between 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. Part of the measure were officials from the Ulm police headquarters who were supported by additional forces from the police headquarters. The focus of the controls in particular came from drivers who were under the influence of drugs.

The results of the checks were alarming. For a total of eleven drivers, the suspicion of drug influence was condensed. These drivers were not allowed to continue their journey and received a 24-hour driving ban. They were also obliged to submit a blood sample. Another person noticed by alcohol at the wheel and was also prevented from continuing.

Details of the controls

In the controls carried out, it was found that one of the reviewed drivers steered his vehicle without valid operating license. In addition, nine road users were displayed due to violations of cell phone use and the stroke bid. These incidents illustrate the ongoing challenges that the police are facing in the event of traffic safety.

The intensive controls are part of a comprehensive police strategy to reduce the number of drug accidents on the streets. These measures are necessary because drivers are repeatedly under the influence of drugs, which can lead to dangerous situations in road traffic. The police have undertaken to continue these controls to ensure public security and to minimize potential risks for other road users.

The authorities underline that such controls can help to raise awareness of the dangers of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol. These efforts are not only important for direct safety in road traffic, but should also stimulate to deal with your own behavior more responsibly as a driver. Against this background, the further implementation of such controls is of central importance in order to make the streets safer for everyone.
