Von Kl Redaktion

Eisenach-in the early morning hours of Saturday, around 3:15 a.m., the police in Eisenach checked several e-scooter drivers who were obviously under the influence of alcohol. During a check in Tiefenbacher Allee, the officers came across an 18-year-old who went through control on an e-scooter.

A voluntary breath alcohol test revealed an alcohol concentration of 0.6 per thousand, which is already classified as questionable. However, this was not the only incident that the police registered this morning. Previously, two more e-scooters on Ernst-Thälmann-Straße and Schillerstrasse had also noticed, whose drivers were also alcoholic.

The values ​​of the other two drivers were significantly higher. One of the drivers had a terrifying concentration of 1.1 per thousand, while the other even had 1.5 per thousand in his blood. Such values ​​are alarming, especially in connection with the driving of an e-scooter that has gained popularity in many young people.

The police have announced that it would initiate corresponding procedures against the drivers concerned. This is not only important for traffic safety, but also for clarification about the dangers of driving under the influence of alcohol. Responsible behavior in road traffic is essential to avoid accidents and possible personal injury.

These incidents once again illustrate how important enlightening measures and regular controls in road traffic are. It turns out that despite existing regulations and possible punishments, many drivers still underestimate the dangers of alcohol consumption.

In Germany, the rules for the operation of e-scooters are clear: In the case of an alcohol test that exceeds 0.5 per thousand, driving can be considered dangerous, and the punishments can vary depending on the severity of the offense. The police therefore appeal to all road users to avoid alcohol in the sense of their own safety and the security of others.

In summary, it can be said that the control and intervention of the police in Eisenach contributed not only to uncover violations, but also served as an important contribution to sensitization for the topic of alcohol at the wheel. Every driver involved is a step in the right direction to raise awareness of the risks and make the streets safer.
