The driver, a 22-year-old Finn and IUM student, had a blood alcohol level of 1.87 grammes per litre at the time of the accident, almost four times the legal limit of 0.5 grammes. Tests revealed no traces of drugs.<\/span><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having been in hospital for a long time, then undergoing rehabilitation, the driver was unable to be interviewed until February 2024. He was charged in March 2024 with\u00a0<em>&#8220;aggravated manslaughter and aggravated involuntary injury&#8221;<\/em> and placed under the court&#8217;s supervision with a \u20ac60,000 bond.

In December 2024, the former Minister of State, Didier Guillaume, announced a number of actions: increased checks in sensitive areas, discussions with nightclubs and the distribution of awareness flyers.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A bill was tabled at the beginning of 2025 providing for three major changes: the authorisation of systematic alcohol checks (currently only in the event of an accident or signs of drunkenness), the creation of an offence of\u00a0<em>deliberately endangering others<\/em>\u00a0to punish dangerous behaviour before an accident occurs, and stronger penalties, deemed insufficiently dissuasive. There are plans to install speed cameras in all Monaco tunnels. In April 2025, the impoundment period for offending vehicles was extended to 120 hours during major events such as the Grand Prix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fatal accident occurred at the end of the Millenium tunnel in Monaco on 17 December 2023 at around 4.30 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":80,"featured_media":307698,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[243,258],"tags":[2839],"post_sectags":[5357],"post_format":[2468],"class_list":["post-307949","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-public-life","tag-justice-en","sectag-accident-en","format-story"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.6 (Yoast SEO v27.6) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>2023 tragic accident: victims&#039;
