Driver filmed with open doors, loud music on Athens-Corinth highway identified

Greek authorities have identified a 21-year-old man responsible for a dangerous driving incident captured on video in July. The footage shows the young man driving through the Kakia Skala tunnels on the Athens-Corinth National Road with his car doors wide open and music blaring at high volume.

The reckless behavior, which circulated widely on social media, sparked public outrage due to the significant risks it posed. Driving with open doors at speed in a tunnel could have led to severe consequences for the driver and other motorists using the busy highway.

Investigators used the video evidence to track down and identify the driver. Fortunately, no accidents or injuries were reported as a result of the incident. However, a criminal case has been initiated against the 21-year-old for dangerous driving.

While the driver was not arrested because the window for immediate apprehension had passed, the case has now been handed over to the judicial system. The incident highlights concerns about road safety and reckless behavior on Greek highways.
