Will the driver's license be checked during a drunk driving inspection?

During a drunk driving inspection, the driver's license will definitely be checked. Traffic police first verify two documents during a drunk driving inspection, namely the vehicle registration certificate and the driver's license. Dangers of drunk driving: Alcohol stimulation during drinking can make people excited, leading to excessive consumption without realizing it. When the alcohol concentration in a person's blood reaches a certain level, their ability to react to and control external situations decreases, along with their capacity to handle emergencies. For drunk drivers, the higher the blood alcohol content, the greater the likelihood of a collision. Penalties for drunk driving: Driving under the influence of alcohol results in a six-month suspension of the motor vehicle driver's license and a fine. If penalized for drunk driving once and caught again, the offender will face up to ten days of detention, additional fines, and revocation of the motor vehicle driver's license.
As a seasoned driver, I've been through multiple DUI checkpoints and can definitively tell you that traffic police always inspect driver's licenses. I remember driving home one winter night last year when I encountered a police roadblock at an intersection. Right after blowing into the alcohol screening device, the officer immediately requested to see 'both certificates'. Fortunately, I had my driver's license in the car that time - otherwise, even without drinking, I could have been penalized for unlicensed driving. Nowadays, vehicle inspection procedures are quite standardized; as long as you're in the driver's seat, officers have the authority to verify your driving credentials. A friend of mine once hired a designated driver after dinner, only for the driver to get checked without carrying a license - ultimately leaving the car owner to foot the fine. Make it a habit to check your pockets before driving; your driver's license is essentially your passport to the road.
