From a legal perspective, lawyer Hoang Tung (Head of Trung Hoa Law Office, Hanoi) said: “According to Clause 8, Article 8 of the Road Traffic Law 2008, driving a car on the road without alcohol in the blood or breath is strictly prohibited.

Drivers of automobiles must comply with the regulations on vehicle speed on the road and must keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of their vehicle. It can be seen that the driver who caused the above accident was driving a car with a high alcohol concentration in his blood (1.5 times higher than the maximum penalty for violations specified in Decree 100/2019/ND- CP) and did not comply with the regulations on speed as well as keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of him, causing a particularly serious traffic accident, resulting in 03 people in the same family. dead.

Area 3 victims died.

Point a, Clause 3, Article 260 of the Penal Code 2015, amended and supplemented in 2017 provides for “Crime of violating regulations on participating in road traffic”. Accordingly, those who participate in road traffic and violate regulations on road traffic safety and kill 3 or more people, shall be sentenced to 7-15 years of imprisonment. Offenders may also be banned from holding certain posts, practicing certain professions or doing certain jobs for 1 – 5 years.

“In this case, subject Nguyen Duc Thinh caused a fatal accident when he had a high alcohol concentration in his body.

Of the three victims who died in this accident, victim Nguyen Thuy D was only 13 years old.

The subject of the accident is an officer working at the Department of Transport, who must be a person who knows very well about the legal regulations when participating in traffic, but violates the alcohol concentration, driving the car. At high speed, it crashed directly into a motorbike, killing all 3 people. This shows the subject’s disregard for the law, knowing the law’s regulations well, and having the ability to speculate and judge about the consequences that will occur in reality, but still intentionally commit the act.”

“There are quite a few aggravating circumstances that can be considered by the Court for Nguyen Duc Thinh’s behavior such as the alcohol concentration at the time of the accident being higher than the maximum handling level, causing a fatal accident. For people under 16 years old, the driver himself is an official working directly in the transportation industry.

In addition to being criminally responsible, Nguyen Duc Thinh needs to compensate for all damage caused to the victim’s family such as the cost of treatment before death, funeral expenses, money to compensate for mental loss to the victim. victim’s house, alimony for those for whom the victim is obliged to support …”, lawyer Hoang Tung said.
