Driver with almost four per thousand caught in Klietz: draft license confiscated

New traffic safety risk in Saxony-Anhalt discovered

in Klietz in the district of Stendal, there was a disturbing incident when a 52-year-old man presumably drove car with a breath alcohol value of almost four per thousand. An attentive witness alerted the police after he had observed how the man in the Neuermark-Lübar district rose from his vehicle.

The officials immediately carried out a breath alcohol test and also ordered a blood test to determine the exact alcohol concentration in the driver's blood. As a consequence, the man's driver's license was confiscated and criminal proceedings against him.

This concerning situation throws a serious light on traffic safety and illustrates the dangers of alcohol consumption at the wheel. Such a high alcohol level not only affects your own judgment, but also endangers the lives of other road users.

It is essential that road users perceive their responsibility in road traffic and are aware that alcohol and driving never belong together. The authorities are consistently committed to the security of all road users and consistently punish violations of the traffic rules.

It is due to each individual to act responsibly and to contribute to the roads that become safer. The cooperation between citizens and authorities can prevent dangerous situations such as this and the overall traffic safety can be improved.
