The Latvian government has decided to donate 20 vehicles to Ukraine, which were previously confiscated from drivers arrested for driving under the influence.
According to Delfi, the donated vehicles will be used across various military units of the National Guard of Ukraine and the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
Recipients will also include medical institutions and local administrations in different regions of Ukraine, including a hospital in Dolynska in the Kalush district of Ivano-Frankivsk region and a primary health care center in Pyschanyne in Kharkiv region.
The total market value of the donated vehicles is €117,640.
It was previously reported that for driving under the influence, if the blood alcohol concentration exceeds 1.5‰, criminal liability is imposed and, in addition to a fine, the vehicle is confiscated if it belongs to the offender.
