Three drivers arrested in separate Cyprus crashes over suspected drunk driving
Three drivers involved in separate traffic collisions in Cyprus have been arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol. In the Nicosia district, a 43-year-old truck driver recorded a breathalyzer reading of 139 micrograms per 100 milliliters of breath, significantly above the legal limit of 22. He lost control of his vehicle around 5 p.m. Saturday and damaged property before being taken into custody for questioning.
Later that evening in Nicosia, a 50-year-old man tested positive with 82 micrograms after his car collided with another vehicle, leading to his arrest for investigation. Meanwhile, in the Famagusta district, a 43-year-old woman involved in a crash refused to take a breathalyzer test and was arrested; her driver’s license was subsequently suspended. She was also charged with causing a public disturbance before being released and will face court at a later date. Authorities continue to investigate all incidents.
