In Steyr, a witness observed on Saturday evening how shortly after 9 p.m. an alcoholic driver (32) stopped her car at a gas station and then informed the police. When the police arrived at the gas station, the drunk woman continued driving. She ignored the red traffic light at an intersection and drove out of town on Ennser Straße. When she noticed the patrol car behind her, the woman from Linz stepped on the gas – she ignored the follow-up horn, blue lights, headlight flasher and stop signal.
At the intersection with Hausleitner Strasse, the woman stopped, put the car in reverse and almost hit the police car. The policeman at the wheel reacted quickly and also reversed. After the 32-year-old hit a delineator with her car, she stopped. An alcohol test showed that he was heavily intoxicated. The woman from Linz first agreed to an alcohol test, but ultimately refused it. Her driver’s license was taken away and she was forbidden to continue driving.

In Wels, a police patrol noticed the defective rear light of a car around four in the morning. A 24-year-old from the Vöcklabruck district was on the B1 out of town. The policemen drove behind and noticed that the woman had difficulty keeping track. Despite the horn and flashing blue lights, the driver continued her journey. Finally, the Serbian citizen reacted and steered the car into a parking lot. When speaking to the woman, officers noticed a clear smell of alcohol. They also found an empty bottle of alcohol in the back seat of the vehicle. An alcohol test showed a value of 1.32 per thousand. The driver’s license was also taken away and she was forbidden to continue driving.
