Motorcycle racing pilot flees from police and is arrested!
On Wednesday, June 18th, there was a spectacular incident in the Ostalbkreis, more precisely in Aalen, in which a motorcyclist fled from a police checkpoint. The driver was approached by a patrol from the Aalen police station around 9:30 p.m. after his driving style was noticed. Instead of complying with the request to check, the 24-year-old suddenly accelerated and tried to evade the police patrol.
His escape route led via the Johann-Gottfried-Spießhofer-Ring towards the federal highway 19 (B19) to Heidenheim. A short time later, the motorcyclist turned around in Königsbronn and returned to Aalen. At the Oberkochen-Süd exit he left the B19 and headed towards the center of Oberkochen. In this critical situation, another police patrol was already active to block access to the B19 above Oberkochen Nord by parking a patrol car across.
Arrest and damages
However, the motorcyclist tried to squeeze between the patrol car and the guardrail, which ultimately failed. The police were able to temporarily arrest the man. The events resulted in material damage of around 10,000 euros to the vehicles involved.
During the check it turned out that the driver did not have a valid driver's license. The first tests also revealed suspicion of drug influence. To make matters worse, the 24-year-old was traveling with a stolen Kawasaki Ninja ZX-9R. The police are asking witnesses who were endangered by the risky escape or who can provide additional information to contact the Ellwangen police station on 07961 9300.
Chases in everyday life
Chases like this are usually very dangerous and carry a high risk of accidents. In such cases, the police pursue criminals or suspicious people, but fleeing from the police often does not result in any penalties as long as no traffic violations are committed. This includes, for example, speeding or red light violations. In the event of an accident during a chase, the fleeing driver or his motor vehicle liability insurance is usually liable.
The legal regulations allow the police to apply special traffic laws in urgent cases to ensure the safety of all road users. Particularly in busy inner cities, a chase can be broken off to protect bystanders. In addition, in the event of violations during a chase, such as ignoring a stop order, fines and points can result in Flensburg. Bussgeldkatalog.org notes that the possible penalties may vary depending on the circumstances.
