Repeat Drunk Driving Assistance Case | A Suspended Sentence for a Repeat Drunk Driving Client

The client, who committed a repeat drunk driving offense, on the day of the incident briefly went to purchase an item on the way home from work at his child's request.

As it was taking longer than expected, the client drank a can of beer nearby, intending to call a designated driver.

The client, however, having drunk only a little and thinking lightly of it because the distance was short, ended up taking the wheel.

Not long after, the client was caught by police conducting a drunk driving crackdown.

The client, who had a prior record of being sentenced to a fine for drunk driving, sought out a drunk driving attorney to request assistance in order to avoid at least an actual custodial sentence for the repeat drunk driving offense.

However, if a person commits a repeat offense within 10 years after being sentenced to a fine or heavier, more severe punishment is imposed.

The drunk driving attorney emphasized that the client did not cause an accident through drunk driving.

The client was caught in a police drunk driving check while driving a short distance.

Through this, the attorney was able to assert that the client had not caused harm to another person's property or body and to appeal for leniency for the client.

The drunk driving attorney emphasized that the client had not consumed a large amount of alcohol.

The client had drunk one can of beer at the time and was caught immediately after drinking.

We were able to argue that the client's amount of alcohol consumed and blood alcohol concentration were low compared to a typical drunk driving matter.

The client emphasized that he was sufficiently reflecting on his conduct and was making efforts to prevent reoffending in the future.

The client wrote a letter of reflection and completed various drunk driving reoffending prevention education courses.

Based on this, it was possible to highlight that the client was sufficiently reflecting on his conduct and had the will not to reoffend.

This was the account of a client who faced the risk of an actual custodial sentence for a repeat drunk driving offense, but was able to conclude the case with a suspended sentence through the assistance of a drunk driving attorney.
