15 Km The Wrong Way up Austrian Motorway

A German man drove around 15 kilometers (nine miles) on the wrong side of a motorway in Austria early on Sunday morning, miraculously causing no accidents, police said.

The man, 36, who was found to be over the legal limit for alcohol, was stopped near Salzburg at around 5.45 am (0345 GMT), telling police he had "turned around on the motorway after noticing his mistake."
