A driver was flashed at 101 km / h in an area limited to 30 km / h Monday around 9:30 p.m. The offense was noted during a speed control operation on the chaussée de Haecht in Schaerbeek, carried out by the local police of Brussels-North (Schaerbeek, Saint-Josse-ten-Noode and Evere), said Wednesday afternoon the Brussels public prosecutor’s office. He was able to be intercepted shortly after, in the rue d’Aerschot.
The vehicle in question did not carry a license plate on the front, the sense in which it was flashed. The Radar team then transmitted his description and his photo to the units of the police area on patrol. It was thanks to their collaboration that the driver was able to be intercepted later in the evening. It turned out that the driver was also driving under the influence of narcotics.
The magistrate of the prosecution ordered against him a withdrawal of driving license for a period of 15 days. The police court could still crack down by imposing a heavier penalty.
The radar service of the Brussels-North local police zone regularly organizes speed control operations with its mobile radars.
