In Danish traffic rules, what defines 'vanvidskørsel' (insane driving / reckless driving) resulting in unconditional vehicle seizure and confiscation by the police?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. DUI with BAC above 2.00 promille, driving at more than 100% above the speed limit
- Step 1: The Danish 'vanvidskørsel' law allows police to impound and confiscate the vehicle on the spot if the driver has a BAC >2.00 promille, drives at km/h, or exceeds the speed limit by >100% when driving over 100 km/h. Answer: DUI with BAC above 2.00 promille, driving at more than 100% above the speed limit. Why not the others: Tail light failure is a minor equipment fault, indicator failure is a minor fine, and 15 km/h over the limit is a standard speeding fine.
