Shocking controls: truck drivers pay horrendous fines!

B 55, 59597 Erwitte, Deutschland - The transport services of the district police authority Soest have today carried out extensive use to control trucks and buses at the end of the B 55 in Erwitte. The results are alarming: a total of 3 administrative offenses were registered due to poor load securing and 10 violations of driving staff law. In addition, there were 2 advertisements on the basis of the property transport law and 1 for dangerous goods transport. Five fines were imposed on false load securing.

The case of a 63-year-old truck driver who has to expect a fine of around 4,600 euros is particularly serious, since he did not properly operate his EC control device. In addition, two companies expect a fine of 300 euros each, since required permits for the transport of goods were missing. The controls illustrate the dangerous and often carefree behavior of many drivers in dealing with the charge and dangerous goods. The police announced that the controls in the Soest district continue to ensure and protect security on the streets.
