News of Luckin’s new baijiu-infused coffee beverage spread around the world like wildfire last week, and it did not take long until the inevitable happened; a driver caught over the influence claiming the drink was responsible. But it happened in our very own Nanjing.
上周,瑞幸推出新的白酒咖啡饮料的消息像野火一样传遍了全球,没过多久,不可避免的事情就发生了;一名司机因受到影响而被捕,声称是酒后造成的。但这却发生在我们自己的南京。
Luckin Coffee launched its new drink on 4 September, through a cooperation with Kweichow Moutai in which the baijiu producer hopes to bring in a new, younger generation of drinkers.
瑞幸咖啡于 9 月 4 日与贵州茅台合作推出了新饮品,这家白酒生产商希望借此吸引新一代的年轻饮酒者。
And drivers, it would perhaps seem, as Nanjing Daily reported this morning, 14 September.
正如《南京日报》9 月 14 日上午报道的那样,司机们似乎也是如此。
It was at approximately 23:00 on 8 September when Nanjing Traffic Police inspected a car registered to the city of Dongguan in Guangdong Province. That was at the Heye Shan Service Area on the G4221 Shanghai–Wuhan Expressway as it makes its way through Nanjing’s Lishui District.
9月8日23时许,南京交警检查一辆注册地为广东省东莞市的汽车。那是G4221沪武高速公路荷叶山服务区,途经南京市溧水区。
The driver, surnamed Xu, was found to have a blood-alcohol content of 21mg/100ml, sufficient to reach the standard for driving under the influence.
经检测,司机徐某血液酒精含量为21毫克/100毫升,足以达到酒后驾驶标准。
Yet, Xu coloured the issue by saying he had been drinking Luckin’s new baijiu coffee and that it was responsible for his high blood-alcohol content.
然而,徐说他一直在喝瑞幸的新白酒咖啡,这就是他血液中酒精含量高的原因,这让这个问题变得更加严重。
Later however, Xu admitted that he had also drank two glasses of draft beer in Changshu of Suzhou City at around 14:00 that day. He explained that he had heard from his friends he would nevertheless be safe to drive in in 4 hours, so he waited until the evening to drive back.
但随后徐某承认,当日14:00左右,他还在苏州市常熟喝了两杯生啤酒。他解释说,他听朋友说,4个小时后就可以安全开车回来,所以他等到晚上才开车回来。
In the end, Xu will face a fine of ¥1,000 for driving a non-commercial motor vehicle after drinking alcohol, his driver’s license will be deducted 12 points and he shall be suspended from driving for 6 months.
最终,徐某因饮酒后驾驶非营业性机动车,将被处以1000元罚款,扣驾驶证12分,并暂停驾驶6个月。
The Luckin latte’s alcohol content is in fact less than 0.5 percent. Our inebriated driver would have had to drink so much of the stuff to be over the driving limit that he would have been sick from the coffee, not the alcohol.
事实上,瑞幸拿铁的酒精含量不到0.5%。我们醉酒的司机必须喝太多的东西才能超过驾驶限制,他会因为咖啡而不是酒精而生病。
