Is drinking and driving a criminal offence in South Africa?
Yes, Drunk Driving is illegal.
Section 65 of the National Road Traffic Act 93 of 1996 (the “NRA”’) sets out the legal limits and prohibitions for driving whilst under the influence of alcohol. It provides that no one shall drive or even occupy the driver’s seat of a motor vehicle on a public road if they are over the legal limit.
What is Drunk Driving?
In “Lay mans” terms > When you willfully get a motor vehicle – drive to an institution which offer alcohol beverages and then consuming those alcoholic beverages fully knowing that it reduces cognitive skills – then with a cultural attitude of disregarding the law – you get in your motor vehicle impaired – willfully thinking that you are in full control of all senses – THEN with the intent to drive home intoxicated, you do not call a Uber/Taxi or friend to drive you home. YOU THEN Arrogantly think that because everybody does it, what harm can I do.
