Chase on the A1: 33-year-old stopped in Utzenstorf
As the Bernese Cantonal Police reported on Sunday and derbund.ch reports, a patrol noticed a female motorist on Kirchbergstrasse in Burgdorf shortly after 3 a.m. When the officers were about to conduct a check, the woman accelerated and drove onto motorway A1 in the direction of Bern.
Due to the extremely high speed, the first patrol abandoned the pursuit. A second unit was able to resume the chase later. The driver left the motorway at Schönbühl and continued her flight via Grafenried, Fraubrunnen and Bätterkinden. During this, her vehicle collided with a road guide post and a kerb.
In Utzenstorf, the damaged car finally came to a stop. The 33-year-old Swiss woman was arrested and her vehicle impounded. Following questioning, she must answer to the courts. She faces charges including speeding in the reckless driving category.
