A 24-year-old woman reports a car to the police that she says is driving in serpentine lines - and gives her own license plate number. It turns out that she was driving with more than a blood alcohol level.

After making an emergency call, the drunk caller in Pulsnitz gave police a chase. On Friday evening, the 24-year-old reported a car that she said was driving in serpentine lines in front of her, according to the police. However, she gave her own license plate number, as officers subsequently discovered. When they called the woman back, she made increasingly confused statements.

A patrol spotted the 24-year-old's car and took off in pursuit. The woman then drove through the town at a significantly excessive speed until she reached the A4. She was stopped by a roadblock at the Pulsnitz junction. The officers determined her breath alcohol level to be 1.08 per mille. The woman had to surrender her driver's license.
