Even small amounts are dangerous
Many road users are unaware that they can be liable to prosecution as a driver with a blood alcohol concentration of just 0.3 per mille if their alcohol consumption causes them to display signs of impairment, drive in a manner contrary to the rules of the road or even cause a traffic accident.
If it is suspected that too much alcohol is involved, drivers must expect a blood sample to be taken and, if necessary, their driving license to be confiscated.
Loss of driving license imminent
In addition to the criminal consequences, drunk drivers must also assume that they can subsequently be held liable by their insurance companies for personal injury and property damage. There is often also the threat of losing your job if your driving license is a prerequisite for this.
The police urgently warn against driving under the influence of alcohol. Alcohol-related accidents often end with serious or even fatal consequences. They are particularly tragic when not only the person who causes them, but also uninvolved passengers or other road users are involved.
The motto is 0.0 per mille
Although 0.0 per mille is not legally required, the police's advice can only be: Either - Or! The best thirst quenchers are still alcohol-free!
Stay on the safe side and abstain from alcoholic drinks if you know that you still have to drive a vehicle. If you have had alcoholic drinks, use public transport or a cab to get home safely.
