legal ground
Article 91 of the Road Traffic Safety Law stipulates that anyone who drives a motor vehicle while drunk shall be restrained by the traffic administrative department of the public security organ until he wakes up, his motor vehicle driving license shall be revoked, and criminal responsibility shall be investigated according to law; No motor vehicle driver's license shall be obtained again within five years. Anyone who drives or operates a motor vehicle in a drunken state shall be restrained by the traffic administrative department of the public security organ until he wakes up, his motor vehicle driving license shall be revoked, and criminal responsibility shall be investigated according to law; No motor vehicle driver's license shall be obtained again within ten years, and no motor vehicle shall be driven or operated after obtaining the motor vehicle driver's license again. If a serious traffic accident occurs after drinking or drunk driving a motor vehicle, which constitutes a crime, criminal responsibility shall be investigated according to law, and the traffic administrative department of the public security organ shall revoke the motor vehicle driving license and shall not re-obtain the motor vehicle driving license for life.
As stipulated in Article 133 of the Criminal Law, anyone who drives a motor vehicle on the road under any of the following circumstances shall be sentenced to criminal detention and fined:
(a) chasing racing, the circumstances are bad;
(two) drunk driving a motor vehicle;
(three) engaged in school bus business or passenger transport, seriously exceeding the rated passengers, or seriously exceeding the prescribed speed;
(4) transporting dangerous chemicals in violation of the provisions on the safety management of dangerous chemicals, which endangers public safety.
Motor vehicle owners and managers who are directly responsible for the acts mentioned in the third and fourth paragraphs of the preceding paragraph shall be punished in accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph. Whoever commits the acts mentioned in the preceding two paragraphs and constitutes other crimes at the same time shall be convicted and punished in accordance with the provisions of heavier punishment.
To sum up, drunk driving cases often go directly to the stage of criminal prosecution because of the serious consequences of accidents. At this time, if the driver wants to reduce the punishment, he can ask a lawyer to defend his illegal behavior, but the lawyer's fee is charged according to the difficulty of the case and the actual regulations of the regional industry.
