Radishchevsky court confiscated “Lada Granta” from the driver who threatened the police

In the Ulyanovsk region, a 27-year-old man lost his car after re-controlling the car while drunk. In addition, the driver threatened a police officer who tried to remove him from control.

As reported in the Radishchevsky district court, a resident of the Starokulatka district again sat behind the wheel drunk, despite the previously imposed punishment for a similar violation.

The man was stopped by police officers. When the district officer tried to remove him from driving and offered to undergo an examination, the driver began to threaten him with violence. The police took the threats as real.

In court, the man fully admitted guilt and repented. When imposing the punishment, the presence of two young children, military service and other mitigating circumstances were taken into account. At the same time, the court recognized alcohol intoxication as an aggravating circumstance in the case of threats to the representative of the authorities.

As a result, the man was fined in the amount of 260 thousand rubles, offsetting previously paid 50 thousand. He was also banned from driving for two years and six months.

In addition, the court decided to confiscate the Lada Granta car in favor of the state.
