Arrested

Aggressive wrong-way driver during official action

On Saturday evening, a 33-year-old man from Spittal an der Drau was driving his car on the A10 coming from the Spittal an der Drau junction in the direction of Salzburg in the wrong direction as a wrong-way driver.

After several reports from other drivers, the wrong-way driver was finally located by the highway police in the Rennweg parking lot. There, however, he behaved extremely aggressively towards the police officers and therefore had to be provisionally arrested. He refused to take a breathalyzer test. He will now be charged after the investigations have been completed.
