Drunk truck drivers in Osnabrück: Police strike again!

Bramsche, Deutschland - In the past few days, the police in Osnabrück had to put the craft twice drunken truck drivers. What started with an incident on Monday was a disturbing sequel early Saturday morning, which again underlined the security risk in road traffic.

On Monday, the police found a truck driver who was on the A30 motorway with over 2.4 per thousand alcohol in the blood. This incident already caused excitement, not without reason. It is generally known that alcohol consumption not only violates the law while driving, but also a significant danger for all road users. The police took the driver directly out of circulation and initiated the necessary steps.

Repetition of the incident

On Saturday, just a few days later, an attentive road user again reported a truck that drove in a strong zigzag over the A1 towards Münster. This incident occurred around 4:45 a.m. The alarmed police patrol was able to stop the tractor -trailer at Bramsche. The driver, a 46-year-old Romanian, showed up when checking 2.2 per thousand. He was also denied a onward journey.

The consequences for the driver were also considerable. Here, too, a blood sample was taken to determine the alcohol content, and the officials confiscated his driver's license. In addition, the police kept a security deposit. These measures are part of a clear procedure for the police to ensure security on the streets and to hold the drivers who are under the influence of alcohol.

The two incidents in such a short time throw a light on a worrying problem: alcohol consumption at the wheel, especially for truck drivers. Such behaviors are not only illegal, but also endanger the lives of other road users and public security. An appeal to all road users is therefore urgently offered: never drive under the influence of alcohol or other intoxicating means.

The police in Osnabrück made it clear that it remains active to prevent such incidents and increase security on the streets. Further information on this topic can be found in a detailed report on www.presseportal.de .
