The driver leaves the A27 at Gorinchem and shortly loses control of the vehicle. On Banneweg, he crashes into a light pole and the car rolls over several times. The vehicle comes to a stop on its side, preventing the driver from continuing his escape. The driver, a 34-year-old man of Albanian nationality, is found to be in possession of a significant amount of cocaine, which has been seized.

After a medical check by ambulance personnel, the man was transported to the detention center without injury. He was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence, exhibiting dangerous driving behavior, and possession of narcotics.
