Law enforcement inspects A7 roadway, uncovers infractions, and apprehends a driver based on active warrants
On August 22, 2025, a traffic control operation was carried out on Friedrichsgaber Street at the A7 exit in Quickborn by the Elmshorn Police Highway and District Office. A total of 13 officers were involved in checking 135 vehicles between 6:00 PM and 11:45 PM.
At around 10:20 PM, a 25-year-old Sprinter driver was stopped and found to have several offenses. The driver, who was later identified as a Georgian citizen residing illegally in Germany, was suspected of driving without a license and under the influence of THC. A blood sample was taken from the driver, and the suspicion was confirmed.
The arrest led to the initiation of 31 additional cases of administrative offenses, with two other drivers also suspected of driving under the influence of THC. In one of these cases, the driver presented Romanian documents that were later determined to be forgeries.
Two drivers could not provide the required driver's license during the operation. Further inquiries regarding the traffic control operation and the specific case of the Georgian driver can be directed to the Police Directorate Bad Segeberg press office.
The press office for Police Directorate Bad Segeberg can be contacted at Dorfstr. 16-18, 23795 Bad Segeberg. Jens Zeidler can be reached at the press office by phone at 04551-884-2020 or by email at [email protected].
It is important to note that the name of the Georgian driver is not available in the provided search results. However, it was revealed that there were two outstanding arrest warrants for the man from the judicial authorities in Baden-WΓΌrttemberg and Berlin. The driver was taken into custody the same evening to serve a 35-day sentence at the Itzehoe Prison.
This operation serves as a reminder of the importance of road safety and the consequences of driving under the influence or without a valid license. The authorities continue to take action against such offenses to ensure the safety of all road users.
