Drunk driver ensures chaos: second incident on the same day!

Drunk driver ensures chaos: second incident on the same day!

On Friday, May 23, 2025, a shocking traffic accident was reported at 1:25 p.m. on a gravel parking lot in Püttlingen. A 62-year-old driver crashed into a tree with his car while parking. At the Völklingen police inspection, it quickly became clear that the man was heavily alcoholic - a breath alcohol test showed over 3 per thousand! The driver's license was ensured and the driver had to hand in a blood sample before being fired with the warning about criminal proceedings for drunkenness in traffic.

But the story took a dramatic turn: just a few hours later, around 6:00 p.m., witnesses reported that the same man was seen again behind the wheel of a vehicle. A quick intervention by the Burbach police inspection led to the drunk driver being stopped in Püttlingen a few minutes later. This time he was heavily alcoholic, so that another blood sample was required. Now he threatens not only the consequences of the first incident, but also legal consequences for driving without a license.
