Mechelen (Eurotoday): A 25-year-old nurse was stopped by Mechelen traffic police for erratic behavior. A saliva test confirmed cocaine use, leading to her driver’s license being taken away for 15 days.
On 19 November, Mechelen traffic police noticed a car nearly collide with a parked truck on Zandpoortvest. Concerned about the driver’s behavior, they signaled her to pull over. The 25-year-old woman appeared nervous during the inspection, raising suspicions among the officers. Her nervousness and signs of possible drug use led the police to conduct further checks.
How did Mechelen police address cocaine use in recent traffic stops?
A roadside saliva test revealed a woman had used cocaine, which she admitted to during questioning. Police documented the incident and will take further legal action. Police mentioned that the case highlights the importance of traffic checks for road safety.
A nurse who was starting her first day at work was stopped by police and found to be impaired. She had only held her driver’s license for 11 days. Due to her condition and lack of experience, officers revoked her license for 15 days to ensure public safety and highlight the risks of driving under the influence, especially for new drivers.

Ah, the classic “I thought it was just a little pick-me-up” excuse—truly the hallmark of every savvy European driver. One can only assume this chap thought he was auditioning for a role in “Fast and Furious: The Belgian Edition.” Sadly, it seems the only thing he’ll be racing towards now is a court date, with a side of embarrassment served on a platter.

Ah, the Mechelen police certainly have a flair for the dramatic! Who knew a routine traffic stop could turn into Belgium’s version of a heist movie, complete with a surprise twist of “cocaine confetti”? It seems our dear driver thought he was auditioning for “Fast and the Furious: The Belgian Edition,” but instead, he’s just earned himself a starring role in the local custody suite—talk about a “bumpy ride”!

Well, it seems the Mechelen police have taken their “just checking in” campaign to a new high—literally! Who knew a simple evening drive could turn into a white powder surprise? Looks like some folks are really taking the phrase “taking the edge off” a bit too far; perhaps next time they should stick to a nice cuppa instead!

Ah, the irony of a nurse—who’s supposed to heal—taking a joyride fueled by cocaine; perhaps she thought her erratic driving was just a new treatment for road rage.
