A 33-year-old woman was arrested Tuesday morning after police said she crashed her car into a truck while driving drunk on the Nicosia-Limassol highway.
The collision happened around 9:20 a.m. near Agios Tychonas, Limassol traffic police said. No injuries were reported, and both vehicles had only minor damage.
A roadside breath test showed the driver’s alcohol level at 182 micrograms, more than eight times the legal limit of 22. A subsequent test at police headquarters measured 148 micrograms.
The woman was taken into custody on suspicion of drunk driving as police continue their investigation.
