A woman was driving the wrong way on the A1 highway between Bytom and Zabrze Północ junctions (Silesian Voivodeship). This dangerous incident was caught on dashcam of another car, whose driver then sent the footage to Kontakt24. The police said the detained 64-year-old woman had been driving under influence of alcohol.
The incident took place on Saturday (May 7) around 7 p.m. "I was going down the highway from Zabrze when I saw an older lady driving the wrong way. She way going fast. Other drivers were honking and flashing their headlights, but the lady seemed completely unbothered. A car was overtaking me in that moment and was forced to escape to avoid the oncoming vehicle," said Bartosz, the man who has sent the footage to our Kontakt24 platform.
The man notified the police.
