Zug Tuning Car Raid: Police Seize Modified Vehicles

Police in the Canton of Zug, Switzerland, carried out a large-scale enforcement operation during a scheduled tuning car meet at Stierenmarkt, taking strict action against modified and non-compliant vehicles.

The event, which attracted car enthusiasts from multiple Swiss regions, was monitored by officers from the Kantonspolizei Zug in coordination with specialists from the Swiss road traffic authority. Authorities inspected around 30 vehicles to ensure compliance with Swiss road safety laws.

During the inspection, officials identified several serious violations. Four vehicles were immediately removed from circulation due to illegally modified exhaust systems that exceeded permitted noise and emission limits.

In addition, five high-performance sports cars were confiscated after suspicions of unauthorized ECU software tuning. These modifications are believed to have altered engine performance beyond legal Swiss standards.

Authorities also identified three more vehicles with general technical defects that made them unfit for road use. These cars were also taken off the road for further inspection.
