The driver of a van chose the middle lane of Autobahn 2 as a place to sleep on New Year's Eve. Police officers from the Herford highway police found the driver sleeping in the direction of Hanover at the wheel, as the police headquarters in Bielefeld announced on Sunday evening. "It was just luck that there was no accident with the following road users." The 43-year-old was woken up. He had come from a New Year's Eve party and "apparently was heavily intoxicated". Police officers then drove the pickup truck off the roadway. The man's driver's license was secured.
