Driver with expired licence hits bus and car, then flees
According to a report by Index.hr, on Monday afternoon in Požega a 59-year-old driver caused two traffic accidents and left the scenes without providing details.
The incident occurred around 5 p.m. In Antuna Kanižlića Street, the driver lost control of his personal car and struck a parked bus with the front right side. He continued driving and on Njemačka Street struck the wing mirror of another parked car with his wing mirror.
Police found him shortly afterwards. A breathalyser test measured an alcohol concentration of 0.92 per mille, and a preliminary test showed the presence of THC and opiates. The man refused to provide blood and urine samples for analysis. A check also established that his driving licence had expired.
He was held in police custody until the effects of the intoxicating substances had worn off, and a misdemeanour report will be filed against him.
For breaches of the Road Traffic Safety Act, a total fine of 2,390 euros is prescribed. He also faces a protective measure of a ban on driving category B motor vehicles for a period of 12 months and 12 negative misdemeanour points.
