1. The Client Who Sought the Namyangju Drunk Driving Attorney
The client who came to the Namyangju drunk driving attorney confessed, with embarrassment, that he had a record of being punished for drunk driving in the past,
The client said that he had stayed away from alcohol since then, but that on that particular day he felt overcome by depression and suicidal urges and drank with an acquaintance to change his surroundings.
Because he had not drunk in a long time, the intoxication seemed to set in quickly, so he rose from the gathering after about 1 hour.
In his intoxicated state, the client was unable to make a sound judgment and came to the careless conclusion that, since his home was not far away, he should drive quickly and return home.
The client said that, while returning home, his drinking was detected by a police officer conducting a drunk driving checkpoint, which led to this case.
The client's blood alcohol concentration at the time of the breath test was 0.13%, which was very high.
2. Blood Alcohol Concentration Examined by the Namyangju Drunk Driving Attorney
The client's blood alcohol concentration at the time of the breathalyzer test was said to be 0.13%.
Blood alcohol concentration refers to the concentration of alcohol in the blood expressed as a percentage.
Under the Road Traffic Act, a blood alcohol concentration of 0.03% or more is deemed to constitute intoxication, and the Act strictly provides for 🔗drunk driving punishment.
Road Traffic Act Article 148-2 (Penalty Provisions)
(3) A person who, in violation of Article 44 (1), drives a motor vehicle or the like, or a tram, while intoxicated shall be punished according to the following classifications:
1. A person whose blood alcohol concentration is 0.2 percent or more shall be subject to imprisonment for at least two years but not more than five years, or a fine of at least 10 million won but not more than 20 million won.
2. A person whose blood alcohol concentration is 0.08 percent or more but less than 0.2 percent shall be subject to imprisonment for at least one year but not more than two years, or a fine of at least 5 million won but not more than 10 million won.
3. A person whose blood alcohol concentration is 0.03 percent or more but less than 0.08 percent shall be subject to imprisonment of up to one year or a fine of up to 5 million won.
The client faced imprisonment for at least one year but not more than two years, or a fine of at least 5 million won but not more than 10 million won.
3. The Namyangju Drunk Driving Attorney's Defense of the Client
The Namyangju drunk driving attorney undertook the defense for the client as follows.
Emphasizing the Client's Attitude of Remorse
Without any excuse, the client admits all of the offenses in this case and is deeply remorseful.
After being punished for drunk driving, the client consciously refrained from touching alcohol at all and practiced abstinence.
However, the client blames himself for repeating the same wrongdoing once again through a moment of complacent thinking.
Emphasizing the Client's Efforts to Prevent Reoffending
The client resolved to abstain from alcohol in order to stay even further away from drinking as a result of this case.
The client drank alcohol, which he did not usually drink, due to uncontrollable feelings of depression, and because his home was a short distance away, his attempt to return home quickly led to this case.
The client's offense was by no means habitual or planned.
The client also disposed of the vehicle used in this case in order to prevent reoffending.
4. The Judgment for the Namyangju Drunk Driving Attorney's Client
After hearing the submissions of a Namyangju drunk driving attorney, the court imposed a minor fine on the client.
The client had not only committed drunk driving again despite a prior drunk driving record, but also had a high blood alcohol concentration.
As a result, it appeared difficult for the client to avoid a sentence of imprisonment, but through the active assistance of the drunk driving attorney, the client was able to defend against imprisonment.
Drunk driving is punished severely because it carries a high likelihood of leading to a more serious accident.
If you are facing punishment for drunk driving, you may promptly seek the assistance of a 🔗Namyangju drunk driving attorney.
If you are in a situation similar to that of the client in this case, you may entrust your case.
