Drug offenders in Hameln: caught twice within 24 hours!
In an exciting turn of events, a 35-year-old driver in Hameln made contact with the police on the same man twice in less than 24 hours. On Friday, December 26, 2025, the man was checked in his Audi on Ohsener Strasse around 11 a.m. when there was a clear smell of cannabis. A drug test returned positive results for several substances and officers took a blood sample, but the results are pending. This is reported by meine-onlinezeitung.de.
Just one day later, on Saturday, December 27, 2025, the man was encountered again in the same vehicle at around 10:30 a.m. During this second check, he even tried to escape by car before finally running away on foot. However, the police were able to catch up with him and find further evidence of drug and alcohol use. In this case, too, a blood sample was taken and the man now faces the challenge of having to answer for drunken driving as a result of drug use and driving without a license.
The legal consequences
Drug possession doesn't just bring legal difficulties. According to Bussgeldkatalog.org, possession of drugs, regardless of the quantity, often leads to a driver's license being revoked. During investigations, one must expect that the authorities will also doubt the driver's fitness to drive. This could result in the ordering of a medical-psychological examination (MPU), before which it is often not possible to get your driving license back.
The situation becomes particularly explosive for those affected because first-time offenders who drive under the influence of drugs can receive a one-month driving ban, while repeat offenders can even face a three-month driving ban. The legal basis is set out in the Road Traffic Act, which defines driving under the influence of certain drugs as an administrative offense.
Threatening penalties and subsequent proceedings
For the 35-year-old, the consequences could be far-reaching. Possession of narcotics is a criminal offense that can be punished with fines or even imprisonment for up to five years. In addition, the insurance company can refuse to pay in the event of an accident if it was caused by drug use. The chances of success in appealing against a driving license revocation are also low, especially if drug use can be proven. Preliminary investigations are therefore safe for the man.
Given these unfortunate events, it is clear that it is extremely important for drivers driving in Switzerland or elsewhere in the country to be aware of the legal regulations. This could have unpleasant consequences on the road and beyond.
The current developments surrounding this story show how seriously the issue of drug driving is taken. The 35-year-old will now not only have to justify himself in court, but could also face the challenge of losing his driving license in the long term.
In the current situation, it remains to be seen what decisions the responsible authorities will make and how the case will develop further.
