Car in a ditch: woman caught with 3.5 per mille and without a driver's license!
On Tuesday afternoon, a spectacular incident occurred on the L 325 near Albertshofen, which not only points out the dangers of drinking alcohol while driving, but also has legal consequences for those involved. A 48-year-old car driver left the road and landed in a ditch. It turned out that she was driving with a blood alcohol level of over 3.5 and no longer had a driver's license. This is what the weekly newspaper reports.
The police were quickly on site and arranged for a blood sample to be taken at a clinic. Fortunately, the driver was uninjured, but the legal consequences for her are likely to be serious. She ultimately has to answer for drunken driving and driving without a license. The law provides for severe penalties in such cases, ranging from a high fine to the revocation of the driver's license, especially if the age and skill of the driver are taken into account.
Drunk driving – a serious issue
The case highlights the dangers of drunk driving. From just 0.3 per mille you are considered relatively unfit to drive; Driving at 0.5 per mille is a misdemeanor. From 1.1 per mille you are criminally responsible, and from 1.6 per mille a medical-psychological examination (MPU) is ordered to determine whether you are fit to drive. In this context, the ADAC refers to the legal situation, which stipulates that even the slightest consumption of alcohol can have a strong influence on the ability to react.
Especially when it comes to drinking and driving, the question arises: How much harm really does? Even after one beer, emotional and physical changes can be felt that can significantly affect driving behavior. Consuming alcohol also causes the risk of accidents to increase dramatically because the body reacts more slowly to stimuli. Every prudent driver should therefore be careful not to exceed the alcohol limit in order not to endanger themselves or others.
Legal consequences for everyone involved
In the present case, not only the driver but also the owner of the vehicle have to expect legal consequences because he allowed the journey. The law stipulates that the vehicle owner can also be punished if he knowingly allowed a driver to drive while under the influence of alcohol. This is an important aspect that is often overlooked when such incidents occur.
In addition to the possible fine, the woman could also face points in Flensburg and a driving ban, which would entail both financial and personal cuts. A lawyer can provide valuable support in such cases by protecting the rights of those affected and examining the exact circumstances of the drunk driving.
The incident in Albertshofen is a striking example of how important it is to adhere to traffic regulations and to handle your own alcohol consumption responsibly. The possible consequences are obvious: They range from financial losses to serious legal problems that can quickly turn the carefree journey by car into a nightmare.
