Police drone catches drivers overtaking across solid line
A video from the Czech Republic has gone viral online showing police officers catching several drivers committing a dangerous traffic violation with the help of a drone. In a risky road section, drivers overtook a truck across a solid line one after another, while the police drone recorded the entire incident from the air.
The footage was released by Czech police, who explained that the incident happened on a dangerous stretch of road between Archlebov and Strážovice. Overtaking is strictly prohibited there because the hill and poor visibility make the maneuver extremely risky, and a fatal accident happened in similar circumstances not long ago.
The situation began when the driver of a Nissan overtook the truck. Within seconds, several other drivers followed the same move.
Police monitored the entire situation with a drone and documented every violation from above. Five drivers were eventually fined between roughly 4,500 and 5,500 Czech crowns ($215 - $263) and also received six penalty points.
