Drunk ghost driver with over two per thousand stopped in Schwerin!

In the night of July 1, 2025, a ghosting driver was stopped on the night of July 1, 2025, who was traveling in the blood with over two per mille. At 00:20 a.m., an off-duty policeman noticed the dangerous maneuver on the street "Am Green Valley" and immediately informed the local authorities. The 57-year-old driver not only had an alarming alcoholization, but also his vehicle also had fresh damage that could indicate any previous collisions.

The police are now investigating due to the endangerment of road traffic and a possible driver's flight. Other road users could also have been in danger due to their behavior. The officials are now calling witnesses to report in order to further clarify the course of the incident. Unfortunately, there were always incidents in recent history in which alcoholized people have caused serious accidents at the wheel.

alcohol at the wheel: a great risk

The dangers of alcohol at the wheel are far -reaching. According to the adac , the risks increase significantly with every glass. Studies show that even with a blood alcohol content of 0.5 per thousand, the reactionability and spatial perception can be massively impaired. With 2.0 per thousand, as in the case of the driver of Schwerin, the condition is already so serious that there are memory and orientation disorders. As a rule, this means an acute danger for all road users.

statistics show that in 2023 18,884 people were violated in the event of alcohol -related accidents, and tragically 198 people died. A frightening part of these accidents, each 14th, is due to alcoholic road users. Nevertheless, the number of alcohol -related accidents with personal damage has decreased by around 70 percent since 1975 - a positive development that is nevertheless not allowed to hide the current risk.

raise awareness

The realization that almost 40 percent of the trips under the influence of alcohol are not an oversight, but a conscious maneuver, such as SPIEGEL is alarming. This shows how important clarification and prevention are in order to warn people from the dangers of drinking alcohol from time to time.

Everyone should be aware that alcohol not only negatively influences the concentration and reaction capacity, but also distorts their own perception. The combination of alcohol and drivers is a dangerous mix that can have fatal consequences. It is time to take responsibility - for yourself and others.
