Marlow (dpa / mv) - With two children in the car, a drunk driver caused an accident near Marlow (West Pomerania-Rügen) on Sunday. As a police spokesman said, the 39-year-old came into a curve on Landesstraße 18 by car on the opposite lane, where he collided with another car. Both cars that were thrown into the ditches were totaled.
The 33-year-old driver of the oncoming car and her four-year-old son were injured and taken to a clinic. A seven-month-old baby and an eight-year-old child with shock had to be taken to a clinic from the car that caused the accident. The 39-year-old, who was unharmed, was found to be 1.4 per thousand in a breath alcohol test.
What distracted the man from the Vorpommern-Rügen district so that he got into the left lane is unclear. His driver's license was confiscated. He is being investigated for road traffic hazards and suspicion of negligent bodily harm.
