There was almost a collision between a police patrol car and a wrong-way driver on the Walgauautobahn (A14) on Sunday evening.
A patrol from the Bludenz motorway police was on Sunday evening around 10:39 p.m. on the Walgau motorway in the direction of Feldkirch. At Frastanz, the officers intended to check a car driver, whereupon they signaled that he should follow them. When the police then drove off at the Feldkirch-Süd/Frastanz exit, a 26-year-old car driver suddenly came towards them as a “wrong-way driver”.

It is only thanks to the fact that the patrol was particularly slow due to the car being asked to follow him that a collision could be avoided by braking and evasive maneuvers. The 26-year-old was stopped in the exit. An alcohol test was negative. However, a presentation to the doctor showed that she was impaired by addictive substances. The driver’s license was taken from the 26-year-old on the spot.
