Drunk driving in Siegen: Two drivers with 2.5 per thousand stopped!

Niederdresselndorf, Deutschland - The police in Siegen-Wittgenstein found an alarming number of drunk driving last weekend. In several cases, the drivers showed extremely high alcohol values, which led to dangerous situations in road traffic. The fact that two men with an alcohol content of 2.5 per thousand were stopped during controls is particularly worrying. This statement shows how serious the problem of alcohol abuse at the wheel is, as radiosiegen.de reports.

A 51-year-old took the right of way in Erndtebrück and was then stopped. A 45-year-old truck driver, who was also on the road with 2.5 per thousand, also caused considerable damage to property. He tried to drive his 40-tonner through a narrow rail underpass, which led to a massive damage to the underpass and a damage of around 70,000 euros on his own vehicle. The police were able to stop him after the accident in Niederdresselndorf, where the vehicle key was taken away.

renewed incidents and resistance to the police

The police controls at the weekend resulted in further frightening cases. Three drunk drivers caused traffic accidents. Among these was a 33-year-old Ford Transit driver who damaged two cars parked in the parking garage in Hinterstraße when maneuvering. A breath alcohol test showed him a value of 2.3 per thousand. When he was to be brought to the blood sample, he resisted. A 24-year-old Opel Corsa driver was also encountered in his owner address and refused a breath alcohol test while trying to kick the officials. Both men now face advertisements for traffic offenses and resistance to enforcement officers, such as police.nrw reported.

A total of five further drunk trips and a ride under Narcotics infloor were registered in the district area at the weekend. A 41-year-old driver in Rudersdorf caused several accidents and then removed from the accident sites, but was later investigated. The police urged the public to do without driving when alcohol has been consumed. This is crucial for your own health and the security of other road users.
