Kleve: Kleve District - Weekly Report of Traffic Checks

The police, who carried out checks again in the 2nd week (6th to 12th January 2025), consider compliance with the speed limit to be an important concern.

During the checks carried out, the officers had to document 492 speed violations. 51 road users violated the road traffic regulations because they committed right-of-way or turning offenses, while 33 further violations were detected among cyclists and pedelec riders.

In addition, another 17 violations were detected where road users were using electronic devices while driving cars or bicycles.

The officers also identified ten road users who were under the influence of alcohol or narcotics. Among them was a 46-year-old man from Emmerich, who was on his way to the station on Reeser Straße on Sunday (12th January 2025) at 11:00 am. During a traffic check, suspicion was confirmed that the 46-year-old was driving his BMW under the influence of narcotics. A blood sample was taken from him at the police station by a doctor.
