41 drivers and their cars were checked by the police in Linz between Friday afternoon and Saturday 1:00 a.m. 17 vehicles were so conspicuous for the police officers of the state traffic department and the Linz city police command that they were immediately technically checked. This was carried out in Linz’s Prinz-Eugen-Straße in a state test center.
Nine license plates removed
And indeed, this technical check meant the end of the journey for nine. Because these vehicles generated so much noise or had technical defects that danger was imminent. The license plates were therefore removed. In addition, 57 complaints were made about technical defects in the vehicles.
Steinkellner: Controls are important for road safety
During the center of gravity check, four drug drivers were pulled out of circulation and 195 speeders were caught. Infrastructure State Councilor Günther Steinkellner from the FPÖ emphasizes that the results of this focus check show once again how important this control activity is for our road safety.
