A Vienna driver was traveling as a wrong-way driver on the Vienna Outer Ring Expressway (S1) near Leobendorf in the Lower Austrian district of Korneuburg on Tuesday.

The 34-year-old had turned around in the Kreuzenstein tunnel heading towards Schwechat. At the Korneuburg West exit, he turned around again and continued his journey on the A22. During the wrong-way drive, several drivers had to brake or swerve to avoid a collision. The police are now looking for witnesses.

The man from Vienna-Floridsdorf will be reported to the Korneuburg public prosecutor's office and the responsible district authority after the investigation is completed, the executive announced in a release on Wednesday. Witnesses of the incident around 2:30 PM or endangered drivers were asked to contact the Stockerau highway police station (Tel.: 059133-3252).
