Verschillende kranten meldden dit de afgelopen dagen. <\/span><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">En nog opvallender: ongeveer 270 keer leidde dit ook tot de intrekking van het rijbewijs. In dat geval kreeg de fietser niet alleen een fikse boete, maar moest hij ook zijn auto of motor een tijdje laten staan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">De politie van Gent en Leuven nuanceert de cijfers echter. \u201cWe zoeken niet specifiek naar dronken fietsers; het merendeel van onze vaststellingen komt voort uit het feit dat we een blaastest afnemen bij alle partijen die betrokken zijn bij een ongeval, dus ook bij fietsers.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>0,8 promille<\/h4>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Maar het is wel zo dat fietsers die beduidend te veel gedronken hebben inderdaad het risico lopen hun rijbewijs kwijt te raken, bevestigt een ervaren politierechter. \u201cIedereen die vandaag als \u2018bestuurder\u2019 meer dan 0,8 promille in zijn bloed heeft, moet in principe altijd onmiddellijk zijn rijbewijs inleveren, ongeacht met welk voertuig de alcoholovertreding werd begaan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"Y2IQFc\" lang=\"en\">Die alcoholcontroles zelf liggen trouwens ook onder vuur omdat de politiezones ze niet overal consequent uitvoeren.
