Drunk driver (63) stopped at the border crossing – 1.7 per mille!
A 63-year-old German ended his trip with a hangover at the Neugersdorf-Jirikov border crossing. As saechsische.de reports, the man was expelled upon his entry Czech Republic checked on a moped. The result of the alcohol test carried out was alarming: he showed a breath alcohol level of around 1.7 per mille, which is more than three times higher than the permitted limit of 0.5 per mille.
Such figures are not only shocking, but also demonstrate a dangerous willingness to take risks. From 1.1 per mille, a person in Germany is legally considered absolutely unfit to drive, which means that they must expect serious consequences. As the platform [rechtaktuell.org](https://www.rechtaktuell.org/glossar-verkehrsrecht/ Alcohol-am-steuer/) explains, in such cases those affected face the risk of driving licenses being revoked, as well as fines or even imprisonment.
Serious consequences
Given these numbers, the question arises as to how often such alcohol-related checks are necessary. Driving under the influence of alcohol is a serious issue, especially in times when prevention measures such as educational campaigns and increased police checks are becoming more and more important. Lawmakers have established clear rules to minimize accidents and injuries caused by drunk driving.
Although the 63-year-old faces criminal charges in this case and has been banned from continuing his journey, the general message remains that responsible behavior on the road is essential. The police emphasize the importance of their controls and emphasize the importance of using alternatives to driving, especially when alcohol is involved.
Current events in the region
Investigations into the cause of the fire are ongoing, while in another incident in Bogenhausen police were called because an elderly gentleman was seen with a sword in the stairwell. Fortunately, the situation was brought under control without incident and the man received the psychiatric care he needed.
