Drunk drivers without a driver's license: Police grabs 58-year-old!

Gutenbrunnenstraße, 67806 Rockenhausen, Deutschland - On Thursday afternoon, more precisely at 12:15 p.m., police officers in Rockenhausen, a place in Donnersbergkreis, stopped a car, whose driver seemed suspicious. The 58-year-old man noticed a strong smell of alcohol, which caused the officials to carry out an alcohol test. The result was alarming: the driver had an alcohol content of over 1.5 per thousand, which, according to the applicable laws, prevented him from driving.

The control took place on Gutenbrunnenstrasse, where the police reacted quickly. In view of the high alcohol value, the driver was prohibited from continuing and asked him to give a blood sample. The situation took a serious turn when the officials discovered that the driver had previously lost his driver's license through an alcohol ride. This led to the initiation of an investigation due to drunkenness in traffic and driving without a valid driving license.

Investigations and legal consequences
