Crash in Gortipohl
Drunk driver could no longer remember
On Sunday evening, a 27-year-old driver in Montafon, Vorarlberg, first smashed his car against a fence and then fled on foot. However, he was unable to hide from the police for long.
The 27-year-old was driving his car on the Gortipohlerstraße (L188) in the direction of Gaschurn at around 7.50 pm on Sunday evening when he suddenly lost control of his vehicle - it drifted off the road and hit a fence. The crash was observed by a driver following behind, who also informed the police.
When the officers arrived on the scene, they found the demolished vehicle on the side of the road with the engine running, but there was no trace of the driver himself. Consequently, a manhunt was launched, which was successful shortly afterwards: The 27-year-old was found a good two kilometers from the scene of the accident.
When asked about the incident, the obviously intoxicated man stated that he could no longer remember the accident. A breathalyzer test carried out immediately showed a level of over 1.6 per mille. The driver, who survived the accident unharmed, had his driver's license revoked on the spot. He was also reported to the Bludenz district authority. As engine oil had leaked, a ten-man team from the Gortipohl local fire department also had to be deployed.
