Skoda driver with 2.9 per thousand: Police stops drunken speeders!

A dangerous incident on federal road 6 caused excitement on Sunday afternoon. A drivers who had been heavily alcoholic not only presented themselves, but also other road users with considerable risks. The 58-year-old driver from the Harz district was traveling in snake lines with a black Skoda Fabia and repeatedly got on the left lane. Subsequent vehicles were forced to slow down to avoid collisions. The police finally stopped the vehicle at the level of the departure to Hildesheimer Straße and carried out a control there. A breath alcohol test resulted in an alarming blood alcohol concentration of 2.90 per thousand, which was far above the limit of the absolute driving inability to drive. The officials took a blood test to the man and secured his driver's license. Criminal proceedings for drunkenness in road traffic and the endangerment of road traffic were initiated against him. Witnesses that were endangered by the Skoda driver are called up to report to the police ( regionalheute.de )

But the events in Goslar not only limited themselves to this incident. On Sunday evening, a 23-year-old man from Bad Harzburg was arrested in the Goslar city center. Around 8:50 p.m. he tried to hit the passenger disc of a parked BMW on Greifplatz. But the vigilance of some witnesses made his plans fail. Later, around midnight, he tried to open a machine at the Goslar train station, which also failed. Thanks to the patrol police, which was on site in good time, the man could be found on the track track and temporarily arrested. When he was arrested, a one -hand knife, narcotics and pyrotechnics were found. Now a number of advertisements await him, including due to attempted severe theft and procedures according to the Weapons and Narcotics Act ( Regionalheute.de ).

legal consequences in the event of drunkenness at the wheel

The legal consequences for driving under the influence of alcohol are serious. From 0.3 per mille, drunkenness in traffic can be punishable according to § 316 StGB. From 1.1 per thousand there is absolute inability to drive, which can lead to sensitive punishments, including fines, longer driving bans and even prison sentences for up to one year, especially for repeat offenders ( Anwalt.de, der Seinsteuermeister.de ). In the case of convictions, entries in the certificate of good conduct are also possible if a prison sentence of over 90 daily rates is imposed. In addition, there is the withdrawal of the driver's license: This can already be done in the investigation and often includes a blocking period of at least six to twelve months.

So if you think that a glass is not too much a big problem, tremendously is wrong. The punishments are not only financial in nature, but can also cost the driver's license for years and thus significantly restrict mobility. In addition, drivers who cause an accident under the influence of alcohol often struggle with the hard consequence that their insurance does not pay any benefits. Therefore, the topic of prevention is also decisive: advance planning, use of public transport and awareness of your own alcohol tolerance are crucial here. According to the motto: "If you don't dare, it is better not to go!"
