Geestland Police Station Conducts Targeted Checks for Impaired Drivers
In a bid to ensure road safety, the Geestland police station carried out targeted checks for alcohol and drug-impaired drivers on October 21 and 22, 2024. The operation, which spanned across the entire area of responsibility of the police station, including the city of Geestland, part of the municipality of Wurster North Sea Coast, and the A27, proved to be a significant endeavour.
During the operation, a total of 230 vehicles and 244 people were checked. The results were noteworthy, with several drivers found to be under the influence of either alcohol or drugs.
Five drivers were not allowed to continue their journey after the check. Two drivers, aged 30 and 45, were found to be under the influence of drugs. Blood samples were taken from these individuals, and they can expect a criminal or traffic offense procedure.
In addition, a 35-year-old and another 38-year-old from Bremerhaven were found to be over the legal alcohol limit. The 35-year-old had an alcohol concentration of just under 1.6 per mille, while the 38-year-old's level exceeded 0.5 per mille. The 35-year-old also presented a suspected fake driver's license during the check.
A 43-year-old from Bremerhaven was driving a car and trailer combination without the required driver's license class BE.
The sources of this information are the Police Inspectorate Cuxhaven, transmitted via news aktuell. However, the name of the 38-year-old who was arrested by the police under the influence of alcohol in Cuxhaven on October 21 or 22, 2024, was not provided in the search results.
The many conversations during these targeted checks aim to achieve lasting behavioral changes in the persons concerned and to raise awareness among all road users.
