Drunk driver on the A4 is in mortal danger!
On Friday evening, September 13, 2025, a dangerous incident occurred on the A4 in the direction of Görlitz, which once again brought the problem of driving under the influence of alcohol into focus. A 62-year-old driver from Poland, who was under the influence of alcohol, drove in a serpentine line and cut another road user when he got back in line after an overtaking maneuver. However, this could only prevent an accident with emergency braking, as Sächsische.de reports. Such incidents are not uncommon considering the alarm bells are continually ringing in the region when it comes to drink driving.
In Germany, alcohol-related traffic accidents have been a serious problem for years. According to the latest data from the Federal Statistical Office, published on July 9, 2025, the number of alcohol-related accidents recorded by the police was recorded continuously from 1995 to 2024. These figures are available on the Statista platform and show how important it is to provide information and take preventative measures.

Given the incidents of the last few weeks, it is crucial that society becomes more sensitive to the issue of drink driving. Education, prevention and, if necessary, increased controls could help ensure that dangerous situations such as those created by the 62-year-old driver are avoided in the future.
