On June 26, around 7:20 PM local time, police in Nova Gorica were alerted to a traffic accident on Mestna Njiva, where a motorcyclist collided with another vehicle before fleeing the scene. According to reports, the incident occurred when a 49-year-old motorcyclist failed to adjust his speed appropriately, leading to a collision with a car being driven by a 29-year-old driver. After the crash, the motorcyclist left the scene without providing any information to the other party involved. The police later tracked down the 49-year-old rider and conducted tests which revealed he had 0.88 milligrams of alcohol per liter of exhaled air, equivalent to 1.83 grams per kilogram of body weight. The motorcyclist sustained minor injuries during the collision but managed to escape the scene before authorities could intervene. Police have since decided to submit a formal indictment against him for his actions. In addition to the initial report, further details emerged about the incident. It was noted that the motorcyclist was not only under the influence of alcohol but also did not possess a valid driver's license. This additional information came to light after police investigated the case more thoroughly. The 49-year-old was found to have been driving without proper authorization, compounding the severity of the offense. Another incident involving alcohol-related driving took place in the area of Nova Gorica. On Saturday, just past 8 PM, police received reports of a traffic accident near Ragova, where a 28-year-old driver lost control of his vehicle due to excessive speed and crashed into an object. The driver suffered minor injuries and was taken to the hospital for treatment. Upon testing, it was discovered that the 28-year-old had 1.71 milligrams of alcohol per liter of exhaled air, which translates to approximately 3.5 grams per kilogram of body weight. As a result of this finding, along with the lack of a valid driver’s license, the police have initiated legal proceedings against the driver, who will face charges in court. Meanwhile, in Žirovnica, a separate incident unfolded early on Saturday morning. Around 6 AM, local police responded to a call regarding a young driver who veered off the road onto a grassy slope and crashed into a retaining wall of a residential house. The car overturned onto its roof, and the 21-year-old driver sustained some physical injuries. Emergency services arrived promptly and transported the injured man to the Jesenice Hospital for further evaluation. Testing confirmed that the driver had consumed alcohol, measuring 0.58 milligrams per liter of exhaled air. Due to this violation, the police have launched an investigation into the incident and plan to submit a formal recommendation for prosecution to the local court. These incidents highlight the ongoing issue of alcohol-impaired driving within the region. Each case involves individuals who either lacked proper licensing or were under the influence of alcohol, contributing to dangerous situations on the roads. Authorities continue to emphasize the importance of responsible driving practices and the consequences associated with violating traffic laws. With these recent cases, law enforcement agencies remain vigilant in addressing such violations and ensuring public safety on the roads.
