Losheim am See (dpa / lrs) - A clearly overloaded truck was the driver's undoing in Losheim am See (Merzig-Wadern district) in two ways: Police not only noticed that the 26 ton truck had loaded about a tenth more excavated earth than allowed .

In addition, the 59-year-old driver could not present a driver's license on Saturday, as the police announced on Monday.

“The truck driver assured us with plenty of words and gestures that he had a truck driver's license, but that he had forgotten it in his private car,” it said.

However, investigations revealed: The man who was presumably employed as a professional driver had not had a valid truck driver's license for over 14 months.

The truck driver now expects a fine for driving without a license.
