Sobering result
24 out of 26 trucks were overloaded when checked
If it weren't so sad: some people dream of such a success rate. On Tuesday, the police carried out a - literally - priority check in the district of Gmunden. The focus was on trucks that were overloaded and the officers were quite successful.
In the early hours of the morning, police patrols from the Gmunden district police command with the Upper Austrian regional traffic department and officers from the Gmunden district authority carried out checks focusing on "overloading trucks" in the northern area of the district of Gmunden.
20 tons too much
The total weight and axle loads of a total of 26 trucks were checked on site using scales. The shocking result: 24 trucks were significantly overloaded, with one truck being found to be overloaded by more than 20 tons above the maximum permissible total weight. Another truck driver was also found to be impaired by narcotics and his driver's license was temporarily confiscated. A total of 145 violations had to be reported to the police.
