Big ofread revealed at the border: leaving 215 cases of beer

Likewise Gold, Mariestads Export and Åbro Brygg. They have many good Swedish beer in the Bordershop on the other side of the fehmarnbelt, and at least one Swedish driver was the thirst Friday evening greater than the vehicle's loading capacity.

When the 26-year-old leads the bell 21.16 rolled out of the ferry in Rödbyhavn, had his car a harm on the no less than 1720 pounds. It is similar to the loading of the firehjulstrækkeren Volkswagen Tiguan behind in the car after having filled it to the allowable weight.

The Swedish driver was running in a smaller chassis, and overloaded have, therefore, been so clear that the border guards called the to check.

According to Erik Mather, the head of the færdselsafdelingen at Sydsjællands and Lolland-Falster Police, it is not something they should do, but a side effect of border controls.

- Our border is there at each and every færgeankomst, and comes as a vehicle, as in the long distance looks overloaded, so it goes over our politimoral to let the driver pass, says Erik Mather.

According to Erik Mather, it is not unusual to see vehicles with a majority of 58 percent here - but it is still 'a violent excess'.

- So one has breached the security, the car weighs more than the construction really is built to carry, and as the brakes can brake. You must be very tone-deaf for not being able to hear, it can have drastic consequences if you are involved in an accident, he says.

What often happens, though, is that the tires run hot on the highway. Erik Mather point on that particular Swedish car drivers travelling well over 100 kilometres, with 110 and 130 km/h. in an overloaded car, runs a risk.

- the Tires are not sized for the load, and then they explode at the end. It can result in a nasty accident, as we preferably want to be in addition to, says the head of the færdselsafdelingen.

In the specific case was the Swedish driver is instructed to unload the 215 cases of beer and the water of the harbour, before he had to run on.

the Story goes, unfortunately, nothing about whether the number of liters of water have been left on the square or not, but it will then not be the only loss, the driver must suffer for the offence.

he Has just retrieved the beer and water to a familiefødselsdag in his own van, he will receive a fine on 150 dkk pr. percent, varebilen was overloaded. It runs, in this case up in the 11.700 crowns and rounded then up to a total fine of 12,000 crowns.

he Is driven to Germany for beer and water as part of a profession, it cost 75 dollars per. percent to the driver and the additional dkk 150 pr. percent to the owner of the car.

in Addition, he can possibly look forward to to be deprived of the right to drive a car in Denmark. There is no set limit to when you lose the driving licence by overloading, but declares bilinspektøren the vehicle for 'recklessly', then the police can choose to go in court with a so-called claim on driving.
