A woman in her 30s has been sentenced to 45 days in prison for driving a truck while heavily intoxicated, with a blood alcohol level of 3.23, after causing an accident on the E39 road in Norway.
On February 14 of last year, the E39 road was closed for several hours near OgnΓΈy in Bokn due to an accident involving a truck that drove off the road and into a guardrail. The driver, a woman in her 30s, has now been sentenced to 45 days in prison after being found to have a blood alcohol level of 3.23 at the time of the incident. This level is significantly above the legal limit and highlights the dangers of driving under the influence.
The court deemed it aggravating circumstances that the woman had driven approximately 150 kilometers from Bergen to Bokn prior to the accident. This extensive journey while impaired raises concerns about road safety and responsible driving practices. Her actions not only endangered her own life but also the lives of others on the road.
In addition to her prison sentence, the woman has been ordered to pay a fine of 65,000 Norwegian kroner and has lost her driver's license for four years. This case serves as a reminder of the serious consequences of driving under the influence and the legal repercussions that can follow such reckless behavior.
