Bautzen: Two drivers with over 1 per mille taken out of traffic!
On July 4, 2025, there were several incidents in the Bautzen district in which the police uncovered two drunk driving cases. Particularly explosive: Both drivers had already consumed significant amounts of alcohol before getting behind the wheel. According to Sächsische, a 54-year-old VW driver was killed on Behringstrasse at 6:10 p.m checked, and her breath alcohol test showed a value of 1.12 per mille.
Shortly after this check, at 7.15 p.m., a 55-year-old Skoda driver was noticed and was also stopped for a check. His test showed a value of 1.1 per mille. Both drivers are now not only banned from driving, their driving licenses have been confiscated and blood samples have been ordered. What an unfortunate situation that could have easily been avoided!
The rules regarding drunk driving
Why is this so important? Drunk driving not only endangers your own safety, but also that of other road users. In Germany there is a clear blood alcohol limit that states: from 1.1 per mille there is absolute inability to drive, which means that such a value is punishable. Lower values such as 0.5 to 1.09 per mille are an administrative offense that is punished with a fine of 500 euros and other consequences, such as points in Flensburg. This information comes from the detailed explanations of the ADAC.
Interestingly, there are even strict regulations for drivers under 21 and for novice drivers in their probationary period, who must expect a blood alcohol level of 0.0 if there is an absolute ban on alcohol. Here, too, there are some devastating consequences, because anyone who does not adhere to the rules must expect heavy fines and possibly even the ordering of a medical-psychological examination (MPU).
Public safety and emergency response functions
In another report from the Leipzig region, the police have published current information about emergency behavior. It is important to remain calm in crisis situations and to know the emergency numbers: In Germany, the police can be reached on 110 and the emergency services can be reached on 112. As LVZ reports, those affected should definitely stay at the scene of the incident in order to be able to provide valuable information and notify relatives if possible.
The public is an important part of the security architecture. It is essential that everyone has the necessary information to help or to act appropriately when an emergency arises. The existing structures in Leipzig and the surrounding area help to protect citizens in the best possible way and to help if necessary.
In summary, preventive measures and awareness of the dangers of drunk driving are essential steps to make communities like Bautzen and Leipzig safer. Stay safe and responsible!
