While there was a traffic jam on the Tauernautobahn (A10) towards Salzburg on Thursday and the hard shoulder functioned well, a drunk driver mercilessly abused it. The reason was funny.
On an emergency lane, the cars dodge to the left and right so that the emergency vehicles can quickly reach the scene of the accident in the middle. This process worked perfectly on the Tauernautobahn (A10) towards Salzburg on Thursday. A 31-year-old from the city of Salzburg thought he could now make good use of the free ride and simply drove past all the cars.
Plainclothes police arrested the driver
It was just stupid that a civilian patrol had joined the standing column. Officers immediately saw the man. After a short night drive, they turned the wheel and determined a value of 1.32 per thousand in the alcohol test. The driver’s license was taken from Salzburg. In addition, a report was filed because he drove on the hard shoulder without permission. The 31-year-old gave the reason for his act that he urgently needed to go to the toilet.
Fall with e-bike
A 65-year-old in the Gneiss district of Salzburg was also very drunk. The Lower Austrian was on his e-bike when he fell. The rescue operation took the injured to the accident hospital in Salzburg. There, the doctors found an alcohol content of 2.14 promille, which was reported.
