Picture this: border police in Upper Austria stop a 37-year-old Czech woman at the Wullowitz crossing. And what do they find? The woman has no valid driver’s license, is driving under the influence of methamphetamine, refuses a medical exam, and—wait for it—has a 70-centimeter sword in her trunk! Yes, you read that right—a sword! Not just any sword, but a weapon she is legally banned from possessing. The police were stunned, and she now faces multiple charges.
This driver from Linz didn’t just break the law by driving without a license; she also refused a medical exam that would determine her fitness to drive. To make matters worse, a urine test confirmed methamphetamine use, meaning she was high behind the wheel.
And if that’s not enough, the sword found in her trunk has a blade about 70 cm long—a serious weapon—and she is prohibited from owning weapons! The police confiscated the sword immediately and will press charges accordingly.
This incident shines a harsh light on serious lapses in border control and the dangers posed by drivers under the influence and without licenses. Is it really possible for someone to cross a border with drugs and weapons and not get caught right away?
If you think this is just another bizarre news story, think again. These situations are dangerous and could have catastrophic consequences. So next time you cross a border, ask yourself—who else is driving around with a sword in their trunk and high on meth?
