In a tram of line D in Vienna-Döbling, a tram driver was found by the police on Tuesday with 0.9 per mille of alcohol in his blood.

A corresponding online report by the "Kronen Zeitung" was confirmed on Friday to the APA by both the Vienna Lines and the State Police Directorate. The police operation occurred after they were alerted due to a passenger who had fallen.

Tram Driver No Longer Employed by Vienna Lines

Investigations are underway against the now former tram driver - according to a spokeswoman, he is no longer employed by the transport company due to the violation of the strict alcohol ban - on suspicion of negligent bodily harm in road traffic due to the fall. A report due to the intoxication has also already been filed. The Vienna Lines pointed out in connection with this case that compliance with the alcohol ban is repeatedly checked with unannounced tests.
