Betrunkener Lenker ohne Führerschein: Polizei erwischt in Villach!

Villach, Österreich - On June 7, 2025, a 46-year-old man in Villach was stopped by the police because he lacked the back license plate of his vehicle. During the inspection, the police found that the driver had no valid steering authorization and that the vehicle was not properly approved for traffic. In addition, the man showed significant signs of alcoholization, which was confirmed by an alkotest that resulted in high level of alcohol. As a result, the police entered the vehicle keys and the attached license plates. The driver is now displayed due to several administrative violations, reports Klick Carinthia.

Het incident roept niet alleen vragen op over verkeersveiligheid, maar belicht ook de juridische aspecten van alcoholgebruik in verkeer. According to a report of ÖAMTC legal advice, under the direction of Nikolaus Authhried, there are numerous errors about the consumption of alcohol and the associated traffic suitability. Een wijdverbreide fout is dat u een voertuig kunt sturen met een alcoholgehalte van het bloed van minder dan 0,5 per duizend. Lagere waarden kunnen zelfs ook leiden tot onvermogen om een voertuig veilig te houden, vooral in het geval van vermoeidheid of interacties met medicatie.

wettelijke kadervoorwaarden

alcohol controls may not only be carried out when suspected; The road traffic regulations also allow unannounced controls. Especially after accidents, the police are entitled to carry out controllers without any suspicion. Furthermore, there is a misconception that alcoholized cycling has no effect on the driver's license. According to the ÖAMTC, this can certainly cause a lack of a lack of traffic to lead, which could lead to an examination procedure, regardless of whether you have a vehicle or a bike.

Another advisory game begins before alcohol controls: It is often assumed that drinking water can influence the results by drinking water or smoking before checking. In fact, however, it is the case that nothing can be eaten, drunk or smoked 15 minutes before a measurement, since any violations are considered to be denial of the measurement.

alcohol boundaries and punishments

The behavior in road traffic under the influence of alcohol should not be underestimated. The legal alcohol boundaries in Germany are to be understood as maximum limits. For drivers, an absolute alcohol ban of 0.0 per thousand applies to people up to the age of 21 and to beginners in the trial period. From 0.5 per thousand per threatens sensitive punishments, while from 1.1 per thousand the absolute inability to drive is determined, which can result in serious legal consequences. These range from fines to a driver's license withdrawal and the obligation for a medical-psychological examination (MPU), as described on ADAC.

Negligence when driving under the influence of alcohol endangers not only the driver's license, but also the life of other road users. Insurance may not make any payments even if a driver was alcoholic and caused an accident. The liability insurance can cover third -party liability insurance, but is entitled to request recourse payments for alcoholization. The comprehensive information about responsible participation in road traffic is therefore essential.
