A lorry driver who had been pulled up for speeding on a Swiss motorway swallowed the tachograph discs from his vehicle when police discovered he had been driving for too long without a break.
The driver, 34, who was from an unspecified Balkan country, was driving an Italian-registered truck when stopped by police on a stretch of motorway in the district of Tessin, in southern Switzerland.
When an inspection of the vehicle’s tachograph suggested the driver had covered more than 1,000km in 18 hours without a stop, he locked himself in the cab and began eating the tachograph discs in a bid to destroy the evidence.
According to local reports, he subsequently complained of stomach pains and an ambulance was called.
However, his actions appeared not to have had any serious effect on his health – nor did they prevent him escaping a conviction.
