Police officers from Nisko stopped the Volkswagen driver for inspection. As they explain, the man's driving style “aroused suspicion.” A breathalyzer test confirmed that the 37-year-old was under the influence of alcohol.
The man was detained for inspection in Zarzecze on Saturday morning. “The driver's driving style aroused the officers' suspicions that he may be under the influence of alcohol,” we read in the statement.
Indeed, the 37-year-old had almost 2.5 per mille of alcohol in his body. He lost his driving license for driving under the influence and his car was seized. He may also face a high fine, a driving ban and even up to three years in prison.
“It's not just a crime”
The police appeal for caution when getting behind the wheel. “Driving while under the influence of alcohol is not only a crime, but above all a threat to the life and health of the driver, passengers traveling with him, and other road users,” we read in the release.
