Re: DUI / Drink Driving sentencing in Cambodia
maybe the op is just doing some research for his work/study?
u do know that people in the west bribe (using cash,influence or gifts) their way out of prison/courts for all sorts of crimes?
its not like asia invented it its just out in the open and blatant
i bet most expats have paid a "fine" to someone to get things done quicker or because the paperwork was not correct.

Re: DUI / Drink Driving sentencing in Cambodia
The law is still in flux as the boss man keeps tinkering with it to win the election. Last I heard there is no longer prison on your first offence, no matter how smashed you are when pinched, and the fines have been tweaked. You'll still get chokey in serious offences like running someone over. We are still waiting for the updated prakas.

What is Cambodian sentencing like for drink driving/DUI?
I'm aware of fines being in place, but what is the situation if there are fatalities are involved? Prison? etc?
Do the police treat 'locals' and 'foreigners' differently with incidents of DUI?
Any other information about Cambodian DUI law from the perspective of residents would be great.
Thanks in advance.
Enjoy your Khymer days.

Lol. Nothing like that at all. No current travel plans. I was asked a question by someone (yep, random!) and thought I'd better find the real answer. Thanks all for the info. Dan

Re: DUI / Drink Driving sentencing in Cambodia
It depends a lot on your position. There have been countless cases of well-connected individuals/ officials have gotten away with drink-driving accidents and deaths.
Here's a recent one:

Here's one who was charged (note the light fines/ sentences):

Here's an older, more notorious case:

All 50 states have now set .08% blood alcohol concentration (BAC) as the legal limit for driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while impaired (DWI). ... DUI attorneys and DWI lawyers are highly trained in the DUI and DWI laws of your state, and often they can lessen your fines or penalties.
Re: DUI / Drink Driving sentencing in Cambodia
But we don't have states we have provinces, and there are twenty five which includes Phnom Penh as the twenty fifth. The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is ) 0.05%ava10 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 16, 2017 4:09 pm Hi
