Shocking accident in Wolgast: Drunk drivers flee!

On the evening of June 25, 2025, a traffic accident occurred at the intersection B 109 and B 111, known as "Moeckowberg", a traffic accident that called on the plan. A car collided with a motorcycle. The 34-year-old motorcyclist, who was on a new Harley-Davidson, was slightly injured in the incident. The responsible 25-year-old driver of a VW Golf fled after the collision without leaving his personal details. According to reports from News.de

The car driver had disregarded the red light when crossing the intersection and was rasted into the motorcycle with full force, which at that time had the green light. After the accident, the fleeting VW Golf not only lost the rear bumper, but also in collision air from a tire before continued. The total damage is estimated at around 33,000 euros. The motorcyclist was brought to the Wolgast hospital for further treatment.

alcohol at the wheel has followed

The police were able to find the driver of the VW Golf quickly. A breath alcohol test showed that he was at the wheel with 1.78 per thousand. He clearly exceeded the legally defined alcohol boundaries of 0.5. In Germany, drunkenness at the wheel is an administrative offense that can reach a criminal offense if the alcohol values ​​are as high as in this case. The driver must now expect several legal consequences. With a value of 1.1 per thousand, the driver is fundamentally punishable, which is also true in this case, as Facilizer.de explained.

As is well known,

alcohol has a dampening effect on the reaction ability and can massively endanger the driver's license. From 0.3 per thousand, driving inability and corresponding failure symptoms can occur. From 1.6 per thousand, a medical-psychological examination (MPU) can also be ordered to determine driving suitability. These legal framework are described in detail on the website of limmer-reutemann.de

legal consequences and punishments

The driver concerned is not only held responsible for negligent bodily harm, but also due to the endangerment of road traffic and unauthorized removal from the scene of the accident. The punishments for drunkenness at the wheel are clearly regulated: if you drive with 1.78 per thousand, you face high fines and a longer withdrawal of the driving license. The points in Flensburg also grow, which can lead to significant problems for the driver concerned.

The investigation by the Wolgast criminal police continue. The case once again throws a light on the serious problem of alcohol at the wheel and the serious consequences associated with it. Cologne citizens should be aware that every drink increases the risk while driving and endangers their own life and that of others.
