In the Vienna Kaisermühlen Tunnel, a high-speed chase occurred on Tuesday afternoon. Officers from the Vienna Traffic Department noticed a motorcyclist traveling at significantly excessive speed during a patrol.

Despite clearly visible blue lights and the siren being activated, the driver ignored the police's request to stop. During the pursuit, speeds of up to 180 km/h were recorded by the police, where only 50 km/h is allowed. Additionally, the driver is said to have committed several administrative offenses. After a short chase, the officers lost visual contact.

Suspected Drug Use – License Revoked

Shortly thereafter, the officers were able to locate the suspect at his registered address. According to police reports, the 28-year-old motorcyclist was in the process of parking his vehicle in the garage. Due to suspicious behavior, he was presented to a medical officer who determined impairment due to drug use.

The man had to surrender his driver's license, and further driving was prohibited. The motorcycle was confiscated. Several charges were filed against the 28-year-old.
