The Bratislava traffic police confiscated the driver's license of a 20-year-old Porsche driver. On Sunday, November 8, he was traveling on the R7 highway toward the capital at a speed of 246 km/h. This is the driver’s third serious traffic violation in the past year.
The speed limit on this stretch of road is 130 km/h, meaning the driver exceeded it by 116 km/h. In Slovakia, such a serious violation carries a fine ranging from 250 to 800 euros. If the case is handled through administrative proceedings, the fine could rise to 1,000 euros. In addition, the driver faces a potential driving ban.
According to Michal Szeiff, a spokesperson for the Bratislava Regional Police, an investigation revealed that this is not the first such incident involving this driver. Over the past 12 months, he has already been held accountable twice for serious traffic violations.
The police issued a citation for an administrative offense and confiscated the driver’s license on the spot. Law enforcement officials also released a video of the incident, once again emphasizing that such irresponsible behavior poses a deadly danger to all road users.
