In the Voronezh region, a recidivist driver was punished for repeated drunken driving and took the car

On October 20, the Prosecutor’s Office of the Voronezh region reported on the verdict to a resident of the Petropavlovsk district. The man had already been punished for driving under the influence, but got behind the wheel again after drinking alcohol. In August 2026, he drove his VAZ through the streets of the village of Bychok, where he was stopped by law enforcement officers. The examination confirmed that the driver was drunk.

The court sentenced him to 240 hours of mandatory work and stripped him of his driving license for two years. In addition, the convict’s car was confiscated to the state.
