Cocaine in Piesendorf, alcohol in Maishofen: police take three drivers off the road
According to nachrichten.jetzt, police charged three vehicle drivers and revoked their driving licences in the Salzburg Pinzgau on 11 and 12 November.
On the morning of 11 November, police officers in Piesendorf stopped a 26-year-old car driver from Bramberg. A drug saliva test indicated impairment from cocaine. A subsequent clinical examination at Tauernklinikum confirmed his unfitness to drive. The officers revoked the man's driving licence and filed charges.
Shortly after midnight on 12 November, police officers in Maishofen checked two further drivers. Both men appeared visibly intoxicated. The 59-year-old driver from Maishofen had a breath alcohol level of 1.46 per mille. For the 58-year-old driver from Saalfelden, an alcohol breath test could not be carried out — a blood sample was taken at the hospital, where unfitness to drive was likewise established. Both men also had their driving licences revoked, and both were charged.
