Drunk drivers do not stop at the traffic police checkpoint in Sassari and after escaping they switch places at the wheel . The episode occurred in the city centre in recent days when the driver, seeing the checkpoint and the police checkpoint, accelerated in an attempt to escape.

But after a short chase the officers blocked the car while the driver had already managed to swap seats at the wheel with the passenger .

A clumsy way to escape their responsibilities because both were found to be in a state of alcohol intoxication, with levels more than three times higher than the limits allowed by law . Both had their licenses revoked and one of the two will have to answer for the crime of resisting a public official.
