The police officers on their patrol at Zauchen near Villach were stunned shortly after midnight when a car raced past them. They immediately give chase.
Although the patrol immediately turned back, the officers lost sight of the car. “Despite driving up to 160 km/h due to the 70 limit in the Landskron area, the patrol on the route that can be seen from afar was only able to restore visual contact at a red traffic light,” the police said. “The driver then ignored a red traffic light at too high a speed.” Another motorist had to brake as a result.
Test on the calibrated alcohol dispenser rejected
In the 30 zone in the urban area of Villach, the driver was still traveling at a speed of 75 km/h before the police were finally able to apprehend him in Trattengasse. “An alcohol test showed that the 25-year-old from Villach was moderately drunk,” the police said. “But he refused the test on the calibrated alcohol dispenser.” The reason: he had “already taken a test” and wanted to “go home now”. The driver’s license has been temporarily taken from the Alkoraser and has been reported.
