Pensioners with an ambulance drunk on the main road
A 74-year-old man was traveling in his electric wheelchair with a good two per thousand alcohol on a Saxon federal road and caused traffic to stop. Officials became aware of the senior on Sunday evening on the B 87 near Gräfendorf near Torgau, like them police announced on Monday. A column of vehicles had already formed behind him.
When the police wanted to stop the man, he initially saw no need to stop and drove on – but he was stopped a little later. Since he was already driving in wavy lines, a breath alcohol test was ordered. According to the police, this resulted in a value of around 2.2 per mille, whereupon the senior was forbidden to continue driving. The 74-year-old is being investigated on suspicion of drunk driving.
