Drug trip in Salzburg: Driver rests through the city with stolen car!

A 24-year-old Salzburg was on February 24, 2025 under the influence of drugs in a risky intoxication during a drive. With his insane maneuver on Peter-Pfenninger-Straße towards Klessheimer Allee, he not only endangered himself, but also his 25-year-old passenger and countless passers-by. Suddenly the driver, who was under the influence of cocaine, increased the speed of his vehicle and lost control. The journey ended in a devastating crash against a concrete wall and later against another car of a 56-year-old Austrian, as the Website fireworld.at reported.

The passenger desperately tried to stop the driver by pressing the handbrake and intervene in the steering wheel, but his efforts were unsuccessful. The alcoholized handlebar and his passenger suffered indefinite injuries in the crash. Fortunately, the passers -by remained unharmed due to their rapid reaction when they jumped aside in time. During the control of the police, shocking evidence of drug abuse was also discovered in the driver's vehicle: 66 grams of cannabis herb, an adhesive scale and some other tools that can be used to add drugs like a knife. The police immediately ensured this, as Sn.at reported.
