With a percentage of alcohol in his system almost eight times over the permissible limit, a 35-year-old man was spotted driving on the Limassol - Nicosia motorway in the afternoon today. The 35-year-old was charged in writing and is expected to appear before the Court tomorrow.
Specifically, at around 4.15pm today, a member of the Traffic Police Headquarters stopped a car driving on the Limassol - Nicosia motorway, near the Kotsiati exit. The 35-year-old driver of the vehicle was subjected to a breath test, with a lower final reading of 160μg%, while the maximum limit is only 22μg%.
After being arrested for a self-inflicted offence, the 35-year-old was taken to a Police Station, where he was charged in writing and dismissed.
Tomorrow, he is expected to appear before the Nicosia District Court for immediate registration of a case against him.
The Pera Chorio Police Station is investigating the case.
