<Anchor> After
drinking and driving in Busan, the 20s ran away from the police car and struck a power pole before stopping.
Reporter Jung Ki-hyung of KNN reports.
<Reporter> A
car runs through the alleyway, avoiding the police car.
There is also a breathtaking scene that almost hit people.
Today (12th), it ended only after hitting a dangerous escape, a power pole and a billboard, about 8 km long that took place at about 2:30 am.
The driver was Mr. A in his twenties, and he was intoxicated with the blood alcohol concentration level at the level of license cancellation.
On the morning of the 10th, citizens intercepted and caught a drunk driving van trying to avoid the police.
There is a voice saying that the awareness of the drunk driving has been relieved.
Compared to last year, drunk driving decreased in January.
However, from February, you can see that drunk driving is raising its head again.
This coincides with the period when the social distancing in Busan was lowered to 1.5 steps.
As the nighttime business restrictions were lifted, it seems that there were more places to drink.
As the weather got warmer, there was a lot of outdoor activities.
There is also a common sense that the police are unable to crack down on drinking because of Corona 19.
[Yoo Seon-jong/Pusan Police Agency Traffic Safety Team Leader: The police are strengthening the Japanese alcohol control to prevent traffic accidents while driving under the influence of alcohol. Late at night, early in the morning, we are cracking down on drinking alcohol. .]
After the revision of the Yoon Chang-ho Act, the judicial authority's policy to strongly punish drunk drivers is still there.
