"Driver Did Not Agree with Measures": Speeder from Lower Austria Drove Away During Stop

In Harmannsdorf (Korneuburg district), the car of a defiant speeder was confiscated on Monday. According to police information on Tuesday, the 53-year-old was driving his car on the B6 at 179 km/h where the speed limit was 100 km/h. An attempt to stop him went wrong, and the Lower Austrian got back into the car and sped away. Shortly thereafter, however, the man turned himself in at the police station in Ernstbrunn (also Korneuburg district).

Lower Austrian drove away

The 53-year-old had already been prohibited from continuing his journey during the stop. Additionally, the man was legally informed by Korneuburg officers about the provisional driving license suspension and the confiscation of the vehicle. However, the 53-year-old was unrepentant and drove away - because he "did not agree with the measures," the Lower Austria State Police Directorate stated in a press release.

Ultimately, the car driver temporarily lost his driving license and his car. Reports are also being filed with the district authority and the public prosecutor's office in Korneuburg.
