A 21-year-old man from Schardenberg in Upper Austria simply drove on on Sunday morning after causing a traffic accident with material damage. Vehicle parts and a trail of oil led the officers straight to the driver involved in the accident. He had a blood alcohol level of 1.14 and had to surrender his license for the time being. 

A patrol was called to a traffic accident with property damage in Esternberg at around 8.30 a.m. on December 1, 2024. When they arrived at the scene of the accident, the police officers could only see vehicle parts and a trace of oil on the road; there was no trace of the vehicle involved in the accident.

Drunk driver didn't get far
After a short search, however, the car was located near the scene of the accident and the driver, a 21-year-old from the district of Schärding, was identified.

A breathalyzer test revealed a blood alcohol level of 1.14 per mille and the man's driving license was temporarily confiscated.
