The Vienna police stopped a hazardous materials transporter with inadequate load securing on the Vienna A23 on Tuesday.

During the focus operation of the Department for Hazardous Materials and Waste Control of the Vienna State Traffic Department, officers in Vienna-Donaustadt stopped a hazardous materials transporter carrying over twelve tons of toxic and environmentally harmful hazardous materials, whose load was insufficiently secured.

Hazardous Materials Transporter with Partially Unsecured Load on Vienna A23

Several straps had come loose, causing the pallets to lie loose and partially unsecured on the hazardous materials transporter loading area. Due to the inadequate loading, a small amount of hazardous material had already leaked. In total, twenty-one reports were filed during this inspection, security deposits amounting to 3,200 euros were collected, and the further journey of the hazardous materials transporter was immediately prohibited. Through the thorough intervention of the officers, an acute danger to other road users was averted, and an important contribution to improving road safety was made.
