Drunken fools behind the wheel - that can quickly become dangerous. Many police headquarters in Baden-Württemberg advise revelers to use alcohol responsibly. The protection of minors is also an issue.
Stuttgart (dpa / lsw) - drunk driving, serving alcohol to young people or knockout drops - police headquarters in Baden-Württemberg point out the revelers to the dangers of the "fifth" season. Accordingly, alcohol at the wheel is particularly dangerous, as the Pforzheim police said. The driver's license can already be gone in the case of driving errors or accidents with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.3 per thousand. You should never get in a car with a drunk person.
The police specifically advise organizers to take the protection of minors seriously. Alcoholic beverages may not be given to children and young people under the age of 16, nor may they be allowed to consume them. In particular, police warn against leaving drinks unattended or accepting anything from strangers. KO drops can lead to unconsciousness, said the police headquarters in Konstanz.
According to the Ministry of the Interior, there will be a larger police presence on the foolish holidays. More alcohol-related offenses than usual are expected.
