From Saturday to Sunday, four driving licenses were confiscated. During one of the confiscations, a car was driving at 209 km/h on a stretch where the speed limit is 100 km/h. During the subsequent chase, the Belgian driver increased his speed to 250 km/h. Just before the Belgian border, the car ran out of fuel. The driver was then arrested for dangerous driving and suspected driving under the influence of drugs. The car was also seized and the driving license confiscated. Upon inspection, it was found that the driver had only held a driving license for two weeks.
During the patrol from Sunday to Monday, another ten driving licenses were confiscated. In addition to the confiscated licenses and paying a fine, the drivers must also attend a mandatory three-day Educational Measure Behavior (EMG) course at the CBR (at their own expense). Only upon successful completion of this course may the driving license be retained.
The traffic police regularly patrol to reduce dangerous driving behavior and improve road safety.
