Consultation on the execution of the fresh regulations included in the Commission's agenda.
In the heart of Duisburg on Tuesday, August 26th, the local police department took to the streets for a comprehensive traffic control operation. The operation, led by officers from the Duisburg Police Department, focused on ensuring the safety of the city's residents, particularly in sensitive areas such as retirement homes, schools, and traffic-calmed zones.
The operation resulted in a significant number of traffic offenses being penalized. A total of 213 offenses were recorded, with 81 cases of inner-city speed limit violations. Two drivers were cited for excessive speed, and seven criminal proceedings were initiated.
One of the most notable incidents occurred at 5:55 PM, when a truck driver was stopped for illegally turning from Karl-Jarres-Straße onto Düsseldorfer Straße. Upon investigation, the driver was found to be unlicensed and was taken to the police station for further proceedings.
Another incident involved a 25-year-old man who was stopped while riding an e-scooter at Hochemmericher Markt at 6:40 PM. The man was suspected of being under the influence of drugs and refused a drug test. Upon searching him, police found an illegal butterfly knife and seized it. The man now faces charges of driving under the influence and violating the weapons law.
In a separate incident, a Polish driver was found to be over the legal limit for alcohol. The driver did not have a driver's license and was taken to the police station for a blood test. He now faces charges of driving without a license and drunk driving.
