Senior with over 0.7 per thousand - driver's license in danger for green town!
On April 13, 2025, the police in Grünstadt carried out a stationary traffic control. At 8:00 p.m., the officers checked several drivers. Among the vehicles stopped was also an 83-year-old man in whom alcohol smell was found. A voluntary breath alcohol test resulted in a value of more than 0.73 per thousand. Since this value exceeds the permissible limit, the senior was prohibited from continuing and he had to take blood. This measure is crucial for the administrative offense procedure that results from control.
In Germany, a alcohol borders of 0.5 applies to drivers. If this limit is exceeded, as in the case of the 83-year-old, sensitive sanctions threaten. According to ADAC , the driver must calculate with a fine of 500 euros, a one-month driving ban and two points in the drive register. According to the same sources, there is already a relative inability to drive with a breath alcohol value of 0.3 per thousand, so that corresponding penalties can be imposed. In the event of serious violations, such as over 1.1 per thousand, the driving license is withdrawn and criminal proceedings are initiated.
consequences for those affected
The 83-year-old must now be prepared for an administrative offense procedure. He not only threatens fines, but also a possible license withdrawal. After a first violation in the 0.5 to 1.09 per thousand class, the injured party should also be aware of the financial consequences: a second violation can be punished with a fine of 1000 euros and a three-month driving ban, a third violation even with 1500 euros a fine and another three months of driving ban, such as Bussmeld catalog describes.
