Busted in Tyrol
Numerous violations involving animal transporters
A pig transporter was caught during an inspection in Tyrol. It was overloaded by more than 7500 kilograms. The vehicle was also missing the required Euro 6 sticker. Meanwhile, the driver (29) had not kept to his break time.
The good news first: the official veterinarian who was called in was unable to find any violations of the Animal Transport and Animal Welfare Act during the inspection at 5.20 a.m. on Wednesday. So everything should have been fine with the pigs. However, the police did find a few other violations.
The 29-year-old driver had exceeded the driving time. For reasons of animal welfare, he was allowed to continue the journey with a transport escort.

On the road despite a driving ban
On the one hand, the Dutch animal transport vehicle was driving on the Unterinntalstraße despite a driving ban. But that was not all! The inspection carried out at the Radfeld checkpoint revealed that the vehicle was missing its Euro 6 sticker.
The van was also overloaded by 7400 kilograms. Last but not least, the Dutch driver (29) had exceeded his driving time. After an appropriate security deposit was collected, the vehicle was allowed to continue its journey with a transport escort for reasons of animal welfare. Both the driver and the transport company will be reported to the competent authority.
