Two early mornings, two detentions. Alcohol speaks louder again in Figueira da Foz

The nights of fun ended in the worst possible way for two drivers in Figueira da Foz. The PSP arrested two men for driving under the influence of alcohol during two consecutive nights. The individuals were intercepted during inspection operations carried out by the police during the nighttime period.

The authorities reinforced surveillance in this area of the country, where alcohol consumption is frequent during the night. The drivers were subjected to blood alcohol tests, with the results exceeding the legal limits allowed.

The detentions serve as a warning to other drivers who may consider driving after consuming alcohol. The PSP continues to reinforce controls on the region's roads to prevent alcohol-related accidents.
