Police are focusing on illegal tuning and speeding in Grieskirchen

The police forces in Grieskirchen carried out priority checks from October 19th to 20th, 2023. These measures were aimed at punishing unauthorized modifications to vehicles and speeding driving. This is an adapted initiative from the Upper Austria (Upper Austria) state transport department to ensure traffic safety in the region.

Several units worked on these checks, including the Grieskirchen district police command and specialists in traffic offenses. The aim of the two nights was to not only take action against conspicuous speeding, but also against risky modifications to vehicles, which often lead to dangerous situations in traffic.

Coordination of operations

The coordination of the operations was comprehensive and included the participation of various police authorities. This close cooperation is crucial to increase the effectiveness of controls and to stop the perpetrators. The police announced that the checks will take place regularly to raise awareness about road safety.

As part of these checks, numerous vehicles were stopped. The main focus was on the cars that had been modified through illegal tuning. Such modifications are not only legally questionable, but they also pose a safety risk as they often lead to a deterioration in driving characteristics.

In this context, the ongoing trend of illegal vehicle modifications is worrying. If someone is caught during an inspection with demonstrably illegal tuning measures, they could face severe penalties. This is intended to have a deterrent effect on potential lawbreakers and increase road safety for all road users.

Police do not ignore the growing popularity of vehicle tuning within the vehicle enthusiast community. Nevertheless, it is clear that changes to the performance and appearance of a vehicle are subject to strict legal frameworks. Only by complying with these regulations can vehicle owners be sure that they are traveling legally on the roads.

As police emphasize, road safety remains a core priority. Preventative measures such as these controls are urgently needed to reduce risk factors in road traffic. Educating the population about the dangers of speeding and illegal tuning is a central part of the strategy.
