Alcohol at the wheel: 25-year-old flees to A656 after an accident!

A surprising incident occurred on Sunday evening on the A 656 motorway in Edingen-Neckarhausen when a 25-year-old driver caused an accident under the influence of alcohol and then removed from the scene of the accident. The young man who was traveling with a Cupra had lost control of his vehicle at around 9:45 p.m.

In front of the Heidelberg motorway junction, the car got off the road and hit the guardrails violently. Instead of stopping, the driver just continued as if nothing had happened. An attentive witness, who had observed the incident, immediately informed the police and followed the refugee vehicle to Heidelberg. The witness did not let up and then returned towards Mannheim, where the police finally intervened near the junction.

alcohol check and follow

After the officials stopped the person who caused the accident, the alcohol smell in his breath was immediately noticeable. An alcohol test carried out showed alarming values of over two per thousand, which is a clear violation of road traffic law. In Germany, the border for driving under the influence of alcohol is 0.5 per thousand, with an absolute inability to drive.

The driver's unauthorized behavior is now being pursued by criminal law. The police are investigating him because of the risk of road traffic and escape from the scene of the accident. In addition, his driver's license was retained, which means that he is no longer allowed to drive temporarily. These measures are not only legal reactions, but also important for security on the streets.

The incidents like this are serious warning signs that alcohol has serious dangers at the wheel. The police appealed to all road users to act responsibly and to do without driving in the event of alcohol consumption. Traffic safety should be a priority for everyone to reduce the number of such tragic accidents. More information about this incident can be found in a current report at www.presseportal.de
