A 30-year-old who was allegedly caught driving at a reduced speed in Rouen, France on Tuesday night allegedly tried to deceive police by producing his mother’s driver’s license – to no avail.
At around 3:10 a.m. on Wednesday, French police had to turn on their sirens when they saw a driver driving “at excessive speed” on the road from Paris to Bonsecours, Acu.fr reported on Wednesday.
The 33-year-old man, who was driving with a blood alcohol level of more than 2 grams, is said to have then gambled away everything by trying to impersonate his mother using his mother’s driver’s license. Most recently it was said what a police source confided to the French media.
Unfortunately for him, the trick did not have the desired effect, and the man quickly admitted that his driver’s license was revoked and that he was banned from driving vehicles other than those that started after a breathalyzer test to measure blood alcohol content.
According to Actu.fr, the man was taken to the station by the police.
