Bypassed the curfew?
Tractor handlebar ensures bizarre police control
But a 24-year-old in Rhineland-Palatinate violated pretty much all the rules far beyond the corona restrictions.
In Kirburg, in the north-east of the state, the young man on a police patrol fell on the night of May 1st at 0.30 a.m.
A traffic control took place at the control point on Köln-Leipziger-Straße in Kirburg.
The scenario that took place in front of the officers' eyes is anything but commonplace.
The 24-year-old drove a tractor and was carrying a crate of beer on the pillion seat.
Since the incidence in the district was 140 (as of April 30, 2021), there is a curfew there from 10 p.m.
And the police officers were probably amazed when they saw the result of the voluntary alcohol test: 2.42 per mille.
The message reads: "The driver, who is known to the office, was able to detect alcohol odor in the air he breathed, as well as abnormalities typical of drugs."
Curfew disregarded, drunk and without a license in tractor
But that was not all.
“The driver does not have a driver's license and the tractor was also not registered.
A blood sample was taken from the driver in the hospital in Hachenburg and the tractor was seized, ”said the police.
And even the drunk's girlfriend was there.
However, in the car in front of it.
The sober lady drove ahead of the tractor in a car.
What is the threat to both of them?
“Corresponding criminal proceedings were initiated against the 24-year-old driver.
His girlfriend also expects a separate administrative offense report for violating the current curfew, ”said the police.
