Drunk Santa Claus loses a driver's license in Oppach!

Oppach, Deutschland - On Christmas Eve, a 46-year-old man, who was disguised as Santa Claus, was stopped in Oppach, Saxony, drunk on a moped without insurance. The police noticed a strong smell of alcohol during the check on Tuesday afternoon and found a blood alcohol content of 1.56 per thousand, as the Zittau-Oberland police station reported. As a result of this trip, he was not only deprived of the driver's license, but he also sees himself against criminal consequences for drunkenity in road traffic and a violation of the compulsory insurance law.

Santa Claus and his driver's license

A slightly humorous look at the figure of Santa Claus is thrown by a poem that describes the adventures of the Santa Claus in search of the driver's license. In these lines, it is described how Santa Claus, before he was allowed to fly his sled, learned in the driving school and passed his exam with flying colors. This poetic narrative underlines the idea that even mythological characters such as Santa Claus have to follow certain rules - a suitable picture that strongly contrasts with the reality of the drunken driver in Oppach.

These two stories, one tragic and the other with a wink, interweave in the topic of the driving license and the responsible driving, even on public holidays. While Santa Claus triumphs in poetry, a real traffic hour must bear the consequences of his actions, which shows that the rules apply to everyone, whether real or fictional.
