A trailer driver has been arrested while drunk trying to board the Port of Bilbao
The woman has given 1.19 milligrams of alcohol per litre of air exhaled, almost twice the limit (0.60 mg/l) set by law to be considered a crime against road safety.
The National Policehas arrested a British woman inthe Port of Bilbao for attempting to board a high-tonnage trailer on a ferry bound for Rosslare, Ireland.
Agents of the Aliens and Frontiers Brigade have detected symptoms of driver being under the influence of alcohol. He was confused and had no shoes. In view of all this, the officers have decided to stop the trailer as a preventive measure.
Shortly afterwards, a Ertzaintza patrol was requested to carry out the alcohol test. While they were waiting, and despite being warned by the officers to stand still, the woman got on the truck and tried to start the engine, but police intervention prevented her from continuing the manoeuvre.
The woman has given 1.19 milligrams of alcohol per litre of air exhaled, almost double the limit (0.60 mg/l) set by law to be considered a crime against road safety. After apologizing for her condition, she has been arrested and brought before the court.
The National Police has stressed that the action of the officers has prevented what could have been a serious incident, since driving a vehicle of such size drunk poses a serious risk both on board and on board a ferry.
