High blood alcohol speeders in Mattsee: Pedestrians in danger of death!
In a scandalous incident in Mattsee on the evening of December 28th, a 58-year-old driver was stopped by the police after driving in serpentine lines for several kilometers and repeatedly falling into oncoming traffic. Despite the blue lights being on, the man ignored the police patrol's signals and continued his unsafe driving style. It was only after almost two kilometers that the officers managed to safely stop the car. How MyDistrict.at reported, a subsequent alcohol test confirmed the police officers' suspicions: the driver had a blood alcohol content of 2.08 per mille.
The consequences for the driver are dramatic. Immediately after the traffic stop, his driver's license was provisionally confiscated and he can expect to be charged. According to reports from the Salzburg State Police Department, from SN.at is cited, this is a clear violation of road safety. Such high levels of alcohol pose a huge risk to road safety and could have serious consequences for the driver.
