Christian Troadec, 57, lost control of his vehicle Thursday afternoon in Morbihan, ending his race in the garden of a property. The gendarmes who went to the scene of the accident checked him with a blood alcohol level of 1.06 grams per liter of blood, more than double the authorized level (0.5 g/l).
“This accident which occurred under the influence of alcohol is serious. I do not compromise with the essential principles and the function of vice-president requires exemplary behavior, expected by the Bretons," said the president of the Brittany Region.
