According to the latest drunk driving regulations, drivers with a blood alcohol content of less than 150 mg to 100 ml will be dealt with lightly. This means that for violations of the law with a certain blood alcohol level, a relatively lenient approach will be adopted.
A driver who drives a motor vehicle for emergency purposes such as first aid to injured or sick persons, and does not constitute an emergency evacuation.
If the driver is caught driving drunk driving due to an emergency such as first aid for the injured or sick, but does not constitute an emergency avoidance, he will be dealt with lightly. This provision takes into account the needs of driving in special situations and gives a certain amount of tolerance depending on the actual situation.
Drivers who drive motor vehicles for short distances in residential areas, parking lots, etc., due to moving their vehicles, parking spaces, etc.
Drivers who drive motor vehicles for short distances in residential areas, parking lots, etc., such as moving their cars or parking in places, will also be dealt with lightly if they are found to be drunk driving. The main purpose of this provision is to avoid unnecessarily severe penalties when performing simple driving maneuvers in a small space.
Drivers who drive a short-distance driver to a residential area, parking lot, or other place to take over a short distance from a residential area, parking lot, or other place for a short distance in order to be driven by another person.
If the driver drives the vehicle from another person to a residential area, parking lot or other place for a short distance, or drives a short distance from a residential area, parking lot or other place in order to be driven by another person, if it is found to be drunk driving, it will also be dealt with lightly. This provision mainly takes into account the actual needs of some special driving situations, so as to deal with the relevant violations more fairly.
To sum up, the new drunk driving regulations in 2024 clarify that drunk driving will be dealt with lightly in 4 situations. These include drivers with a blood alcohol content of less than 150 milligrams to 100 milliliters, drivers who drive motor vehicles for emergencies such as first aid for the injured and sick, drivers who drive motor vehicles for short distances in residential areas, parking lots, and other places due to vehicle moving, parking lots, etc., and drivers who drive a motor vehicle for a short distance from residential areas, parking lots, etc., or drivers who drive a short distance from residential areas, parking lots, etc., in order to be driven by others. These provisions are intended to deal with violations flexibly according to the actual situation, to better balance the relationship between law enforcement and special needs, and to give a certain degree of tolerance and understanding. However, despite the lenient treatment, it is still necessary to emphasize the dangers of drunk driving, and car owners must strictly abide by traffic rules, put an end to drunk driving, and ensure road safety.
