MIGRANT CRISIS AT BORDER * Austria / Hungary - Checks trucks for migrants, on main Budapest-Vienna highway

* Hungary - Checking point creates a huge traffic jam

-- Austria stepped up vehicle inspections Monday at its Hungarian border after 71 migrants apparently suffocated in a truck, creating a huge traffic jam on the main Budapest-Vienna highway... In addition to the gridlock at the Hegyeshalom border crossing — about a 30-kilometer (18 1/2-mile) backup at its peak — traffic was slower than usual at other spots along the Hungary-Austria border, the traffic monitoring firm Utinform reported... Traffic appeared to be flowing fairly smoothly by late afternoon and Austrian Interior Ministry spokesman Karl-Heinz Grundboeck said they would continue to conduct "spot checks" of vehicles at all main border crossings...
