The police apprehended a driver in Sofia last night with the record high blood alcohol content of 5.11. The driver’s drug test also shows traces of cannabis. The man has been detained.
Traffic Police officials told the BNR that more than 40,000 drivers in Bulgaria have been penalised for various violations within the space of a week. The highest number of drunk or drug drivers is in Sofia, Plovdiv, Varna, Burgas and Blagoevgrad.
