Driving too fast
Overlooked traffic circle: Drunk driver overturned
Two impaired drivers kept the local emergency services busy on Monday night. A drunk driver from Vienna overturned several times because he had overlooked a traffic circle. A driver from Linz was stopped before anything happened - he had a cocktail of substances in his blood.
A 30-year-old man from Vienna was driving his car from Grieskirchen in the direction of Wels at around 00:20 on Monday. Presumably due to excessive speed, the fog and his alcohol consumption, he probably overlooked the traffic circle at the junction of the B134 and B137. The driver overturned his car several times before coming to rest on the roof.
Ticket gone
The 30-year-old suffered minor injuries in the accident and received first aid at the scene. A breathalyzer test revealed a blood alcohol level of 1.24 per mille. His driver's license was temporarily confiscated and he will be charged.
Several substances at once
Previously, a 28-year-old man from Linz had come to the attention of officers in Wels during a traffic stop. The driver showed symptoms of drug impairment and ultimately admitted to consuming several substances. A preliminary drug test was positive.
He was asked to undergo a clinical examination, where a doctor determined that he was unfit to drive. The driver's license was temporarily confiscated and he was prohibited from continuing to drive. He will be reported to the police.
