On Monday afternoon, two speeders were stopped on the Westautobahn (A1) near Neumarkt an der Ybbs (Melk district). A police patrol measured two cars driving one behind the other at 200 km/h instead of the permitted 130 km/h in the direction of Vienna. A 26-year-old Belarusian woman, who was impaired by drugs according to a Tuesday release, was at the wheel of one vehicle.

A clinical examination of the 26-year-old revealed unfitness to drive due to drug impairment, the Lower Austria State Police Directorate reported.

The other speeder was a 46-year-old Ukrainian. A security deposit was collected from him.

The two speeders were prohibited from continuing their journey and will be reported to the district authority. Both have temporarily lost their driver's licenses.
