Police hunt traffic offenders: e-scooters, alcohol and without a driver's license!
The Cologne police had their hands full on Monday November 11th, 2025. Traffic checks were carried out in several cities and brought to light some interesting cases. These are not just problems with driving licenses and alcohol, but also a particular incident with an e-scooter driver.
In Blankenfelde-Mahlow, a 36-year-old e-scooter driver was caught driving without an insurance license plate. The police check took place on Berliner Straße and the man was unable to provide valid proof of insurance. As a result, an investigation was initiated for violation of the Compulsory Insurance Act. The police had no choice but to prohibit him from continuing his journey. This shows once again how important it is to adhere to the applicable regulations.
Drink driving
At the same time in Trebbin, a driver was caught red-handed. During a traffic stop late Monday evening on Beelitzer Strasse, the 44-year-old man was noticed by the smell of alcohol on his breath. The test showed an impressive 1.24 per mille, which led to a blood sample for evidence. He was also banned from continuing his journey while the police filed a criminal complaint against him. It is shocking to see how often road users get behind the wheel drunk, despite the risks and consequences.
A 29-year-old Mercedes driver in Großbeeren also didn't fare well. During a police check in the village meadow around 11:45 a.m., it turned out that he was driving without a valid driver's license. Of course, he was also banned from continuing his journey and the officers issued criminal charges for driving without a license. Such incidents are not uncommon and often show a lack of responsibility on the part of some road users.
Road safety
Overall, these events are a clear call for caution when driving. Whether with an e-scooter or a car, the regulations and laws are there for a reason. A good hand when driving and the willingness to take responsibility are essential for the safety of all road users.
The police appeal to citizens to always keep a cool head and observe traffic regulations in order to avoid risks and minimize the risk of accidents. This can be vital, especially in cities like Cologne, where there is a lot of traffic.
