Teublitz (dpa / lby) - In order to change a flat tire on his car, a driver turned around on the Autobahn 93 in the Upper Palatinate. As the police reported on Friday, the 44-year-old noticed the tire damage the day before near Teublitz (Schwandorf district). In order to be able to work better on the tire, the driver turned his car on the trunk road and parked it on the shoulder against the direction of travel.
When a police patrol alerted by other drivers arrived, the officers also saw that the man was working on his car without the prescribed warning triangle. Ultimately, the 44-year-old had to drive backwards to the next exit with his flat tire, led by the police. He now has to pay a fine for turning around.
