Defendant appears under the influence before an expert who has to check his fitness to drive: “Already drank five glasses of beer”

N., a 59-year-old man from Haaltert, appeared before the police court on Monday after he was taken from traffic on his moped while heavily intoxicated. He was also sent to an expert to check his fitness to drive, but the report was ready quickly, because the man was drunk at the doctor. “I’ve been drinking for 43 years. I have tried to quit before, but it just doesn’t work,” N. said in court.
