Speeder in Wels exceeds the speed limit: driver's license lost!

A shocking traffic violation occurred on February 5, 2025 in Wels. During a routine speed check, officers noticed a speeder traveling at an incredible 141 km/h on the B137, when only 70 km/h is permitted. The 40-year-old driver from the Rohrbach district was stopped at around 4:18 p.m. and could only justify this with the excuse that his “head was somewhere else,” as reported by 5min.at emerges.

The consequences for the speeder are drastic. The police immediately confiscated his driver's license and the vehicle was also temporarily impounded. This decision by the police clearly shows that speeding is not taken lightly - especially since in this case the speed was significantly exceeded krone.at reported. A mistake that not only results in an excuse, but also has significant financial and legal consequences for the 40-year-old.
