How Many Points for Drunk Driving?
1 Answers
Drunk driving results in a 12-point deduction, while driving under severe intoxication leads to immediate revocation of the driver's license with a 5-year ban on reapplying. Relevant details: 1. Breathalyzer test: The breathalyzer test is not included in the determination of severe intoxication. According to the standards for criminal evidence collection, drivers suspected of severe intoxication must undergo blood tests for evidence. The alcohol monitoring device data during drunk driving checks only serves as preliminary judgment by traffic police. A conclusive determination is made by comparing the suspect's blood alcohol content. 2. Legal provisions: According to Article 91 of the Road Traffic Safety Law, driving a motor vehicle after drinking alcohol will result in a six-month suspension of the motor vehicle driver's license and a fine. If penalized for drunk driving and caught again, the offender faces up to 10 days of detention, a fine, and revocation of the motor vehicle driver's license. For severe intoxication while driving, the traffic management department of the public security authority will restrain the individual until sober, revoke the motor vehicle driver's license, pursue criminal liability according to law, and impose a five-year ban on reapplying for a motor vehicle driver's license.
