Rapid chase on the A1: traffic offenders caught!

It is getting more and more dangerous on the highway! Today there were two spectacular traffic operations that impressively document the risk on the streets. At 3:45 p.m., a civil patrol from the Villach motorway police noticed a car that raced towards Italy at massively excessive speed. The 33-year-old Ukrainian, who did not maintain the necessary safety distance, was stopped at a speed of 176 km/h. Due to the considerable traffic hazard, the driver's license was temporarily decreased, and the vehicle was also confiscated in accordance with the road traffic regulations, such as click-kaernten.at reported.

But that wasn't all! A 36-year-old Salzburg at 9:40 a.m. on the A1 towards Salzburg much faster than allowed. He overtook a civil patrol of the Seewalchen motorway police with shocking 228 km/h! After he came to a standstill at the Oberwang parking lot, an alcohol festival of alarming 1.54 per thousand showed. He was also relieved of the driver's license on the spot, and he is reported to the BH Vöcklabruck, reported Salzi.at . Such rapid speeds and alcohol consumption are an explosive mix that endangers not only the driver, but also many other road users.
