Will the first drunk driving offense be recorded in the personal file?
1 Answers
Yes, the first drunk driving offense will be recorded in the personal file. If it is a minor case of drunk driving, the records may not be permanently stored, but the traffic violation will be recorded for life in the traffic police information system. If the driver commits drunk driving again, they will face detention for up to 10 days, a fine, revocation of their motor vehicle driving license, and a ban from reapplying for a driving license for 2 years. If the driver is found guilty of drunk driving (with a blood alcohol content exceeding the legal limit), they will be charged with dangerous driving, a criminal offense. In addition to the revocation of their driving license, according to Article 133 of the Criminal Law, they will also face criminal detention and a fine. The record of drunk driving in their personal file will be permanently stored and cannot be erased.
