Peter is a foreign worker who works in Taiwan. One day after “drinking a few cans of beer,” he was driving his scooter with a friend on the back when he accidentally swiped a car. When the police arrived, they made Peter take a breathalyzer test which showed his Breath Alcohol Concentration (BAC) to be 0.53 milligrams per liter.
•In Taiwan it is illegal to drive a vehicle with a BAC in excess of 0.25 milligrams per liter. Those in violation face a maximum of three years in jail and a fine of NT$300,000.
•If a court finds you guilty and the violation is considered a serious infraction, your work permit will be revoked and you will be repatriated to your home country, forfeiting the right to work in Taiwan.
Be aware
Regardless of whether you are returning to a dormitory, taking a friend home or the journey is just a short distance, “drunk driving” is a crime with serious consequences

酒後開車不只罰錢還可能被遣返回國！
Peter是位在臺工作的移工，某天在「喝了幾罐啤酒後」便騎車載朋友外出，途中不慎擦撞小客車。警方到場後測試，發現他的呼氣酒精濃度每公升竟然有0.53毫克！
•根據法律，若酒測值超過每公升0.25毫克就屬違法，最重可處3年以下徒刑與新臺幣30萬元罰金！
•若經法院判決有罪且情節重大，將廢止聘僱許可，強制遣返回國，並失去在臺工作的資格！
請注意！
無論是回宿舍、送朋友、或是短短的路程，只要「酒駕上路」，後果都是無法承擔的
