Daegu Drunk Driving Attorney | A Case of Defending a Client Who Committed Drunk Driving and Avoiding Criminal Punishment

This is the account of the client.

The client of the Daegu drunk driving attorney stated that he had once been sentenced to a fine for committing the offense of drunk driving.

He stated that in this case he committed the offense of drunk driving once again, driving a passenger car for a stretch of about 2 km with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.13 percent.

The client requested that, while he was well aware that he deserved to be blamed for the offense of drunk driving and had no room for excuse, at least imprisonment be averted.

■Road Traffic Act Article 44 (Prohibition of Driving While Intoxicated)

① No person shall drive a motor vehicle, etc., a tram, or a bicycle while intoxicated.

The client of the Daegu drunk driving attorney committed the offense of drunk driving, which is prohibited under Article 44 of the Road Traffic Act.

■Road Traffic Act Article 148-2 (Penal Provisions)

③ A person who drives a motor vehicle, etc., or a tram while intoxicated in violation of Article 44 (1) shall be punished according to the following classifications.

1. A person with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.2 percent or higher shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than 2 years and not more than 5 years or by a fine of not less than 10 million won and not more than 20 million won

2. A person with a blood alcohol concentration of not less than 0.08 percent and less than 0.2 percent shall be punished by imprisonment for not less than 1 year and not more than 2 years or by a fine of not less than 5 million won and not more than 10 million won

3. A person with a blood alcohol concentration of not less than 0.03 percent and less than 0.08 percent shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 1 year or by a fine not exceeding 5 million won

Because the client of the Daegu drunk driving attorney had a blood alcohol concentration of 0.13 percent at the time of the incident, he faced the risk, under the above statute, of 🔗drunk driving punishment of imprisonment for not less than 1 year and not more than 2 years or a fine of not less than 5 million won and not more than 10 million won.

In response to the client's request, the Daegu drunk driving attorney conducted the defense as follows in order to avert the client's imprisonment.

The court, having heard the Daegu drunk driving attorney, issued a suspended sentence for the client.

The client committed the same offense once again despite a prior record of punishment for drunk driving.

A sentence of imprisonment was therefore expected, but because of the assistance of the Daegu drunk driving attorney, imprisonment was averted.
