A 42-year-old driver was caught in Pitești driving under the influence after a breath test showed alcohol above the 0.40 mg/l limit. Police stopped the man on 25 October on Strada Basarabia in Pitești. The etilotest result exceeded 0.40 mg/l alcohol in exhaled air, giving officers grounds to suspect he had been drinking while driving. The driver, from the commune of Moșoaia, was taken to a medical unit to have biological samples collected to determine his blood alcohol level. Officers from Secția 4 Poliție Pitești opened a criminal file for driving a vehicle under the influence of alcohol.

Authorities say the case is ongoing as they work to establish all circumstances, and blood analysis results are expected to clarify the situation from a criminal law perspective.
