Heavier sentences were sentenced to the passengers than the driver who had an accident while driving a car after drinking alcohol.
In the case of helpers, it is because they actually encouraged drunk driving, and the guilt was not good, such as leaving the scene quickly after an accident.
According to the legal profession, woman A drove her car to Sejong City in September of last year and hit another car, injured two people.
It was investigated that Mr. A held the steering wheel with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.110%.
At that time, a man, Mr. B, was in the car, and it was investigated that Mr. B left the scene immediately after the accident.
The prosecution, who prosecuted the two, explained that Mr. B had Mr. B sit in the driver's seat, saying, "In Sejong City, there is absolutely no crackdown" or "Driving because you are tired now."
It turned out that Mr. B even urged A to lie, saying, "Just say you don't know me," while under police investigation.
Judge Park Joon-beom, the 5th criminal justice of the Daejeon District Court in charge of the case, sentenced Mr. A to a fine of 8 million won and sentenced to a prison sentence of April to Mr. B.
Judge Park said, "Mr. B not only ran away when the crime was discovered, but also taught false statements to Mr. A," said Judge Park. .
The sentencing also reflects the fact that this incident occurred during the probation period for the imprisonment for drunk driving.
Mr. B, who was arrested in court, appealed against the judgment.
