Snaking line on the A12
On the highway: truck driver as a rolling “alcohol bomb”
Dangerous scenes on Monday morning on the Inntal highway (A12) in the Tyrolean lowlands: a truck was driving in serpentine lines and even crashed into the guardrail. After a witness raised the alarm, the heavy goods vehicle was stopped by the police. The Indian driver was heavily intoxicated.
The 41-year-old Indian was driving on the A12 from Germany towards Innsbruck at around 9.45 a.m. when he lost control of the heavy goods vehicle near Langkampfen and hit the crash barrier.
But the driver was not driving particularly safely in other respects either - keyword: serpentine lines. A witness then alerted the police.
Driver heavily intoxicated
The Indian finally stopped the van on the hard shoulder. "A breathalyzer test carried out on him was positive and showed that he was heavily intoxicated," said the investigators.
Driving license confiscated
The man's driver's license was confiscated on the spot and he was prohibited from continuing to drive. Corresponding charges will follow.
