Heavily intoxicated
Mirror crash: drunk driver simply drives on
It could have turned out worse: on Saturday afternoon, a 54-year-old woman was driving heavily intoxicated on Gailtal Straße. When a 40-year-old driver approaches her near Höfling, the side mirrors of the cars touch.
With the sun behind her and plenty of alcohol in her blood, a 54-year-old woman from the Hermagor district was driving from Kötschach-Mauthen towards Hermagor at around 2.50 p.m. on Saturday. The accident happened when another car, driven by a 40-year-old woman, came towards her near Höfling. "There was a grazing collision in which both side mirrors on the driver's side were damaged," the police report.
While the 40-year-old driver stops and calls the police, the 54-year-old simply drives on. She only stops near Dellach to inspect the damage. Then she drives home without informing the police. "At 3.20 pm, the woman was found at her home. A breathalyzer test revealed that she was heavily intoxicated," said the police.
The officers confiscated the woman's driver's license on the spot - at least she doesn't have to worry about her journey home. In addition to the hangover, the 54-year-old will probably soon be facing charges for hit-and-run.
