Pavelec: DUI, 1 year probation, 20 month driving ban

Post by Tomas »

Crashed his car on May 26 in Kladno. The level of alcohol: 0.2 (i.e 2.5 times the US limit, though the Czech Republic has zero tolerance limit for alcohol). The sentence (naturally) does not carry over to Canada/USA.

Oh wait, I guess it's measured in per cent and not in per mill...

Yep. 2.0 using "European scales" (permille); 0.2 in terms of US limits.

If they have zero tolerance, no difference between one beer and one bottle of 151. It's not worth winning if you can't win big.

I guess we know why he collapsed during that game last year.

If you are an American with a DUI and want to visit Canada good luck! It is a felony up there and they will not allow you for 5-10 years. After 5 years you can apply to state that you are rehabilitated.

But if you are an NHL player and get a DUI its not problem...
