Drunk 19-year-old rams police car-driver's license away!

Robert-Koch-Straße, 88214 Ravensburg, Deutschland - A nightly excursion ended for a 19-year-old forces ride in Bad Waldsee with an accident that will not only affect his journey, but also his driver's license sustainably.

The officials wanted to stop the 19-year-old and positioned their vehicle at an angle on the road for traffic control.

accidents under the influence of alcohol

the property damage is considerable. The police car will probably cost around 3,000 euros, while the small skating bike costs around 500 euros. The incident has serious consequences for the 19-year-old: after taking blood in the hospital, he is not only withdrawn from him, but he also faces a complaint with the public prosecutor. This is particularly important, because the suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol can lead to serious legal steps.

The current legal situation is clear: If there is a breath alcohol value of 0.5 to 1.09 per thousand, the driver must expect a fine of 500 euros and two points in Flensburg. If the value exceeds 1.1 per thousand, one is considered punishable and must count on serious consequences, including a medical-psychological examination (MPU) from 1.6 per thousand. The ADAC also informs that a refusal of the breath test usually leads to blood sample.

myths about alcohol in road traffic

Experts such as Nikolaus Authhried from the ÖAMTC legal advice explain that there are numerous errors related to alcohol consumption and permission to drive a vehicle. Many faithfully believe that with values below 0.5 per thousand can be uncovered in road traffic. But even lower values can already signal driving inability. Especially after accidents, painful punishments threaten, and traffic safety is rightly in focus. The ÖAMTC urgently warns that cyclists have to expect sensitive legal consequences in the event of alcohol consumption.

The incident in Bad Waldsee is another example of how quickly using a vehicle can lead to serious problems under the influence of alcohol. All road users are advised to be aware of the specific legal regulations and to deal responsibly with the topic of alcohol. Having fun is important, but security is the be -all and end -all on the street. A good hand could show up if you keep your feet still after a wet and happy evening and call the taxi or use public transport.

So it remains to be hoped that the 19-year-old will learn from this experience and will become a more responsible road user in the future.
