Diogo Jota’s Accident: Driver Was Under the Influence of Alcohol
Lisbon – The cause of the car accident involving Portuguese footballer Diogo Jota has finally been revealed by the authorities. According to the official report from the traffic police, the driver responsible for the vehicle was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the incident.
The accident occurred in the early hours of last Saturday, when Jota was returning from a private event on the outskirts of the city. Despite the severity of the crash, the player sustained only minor injuries and is now at home recovering.
Investigations confirmed that the driver had a blood alcohol level above the legal limit, which was considered the main factor for the loss of control of the vehicle. Authorities have already opened a legal case against the driver for dangerous driving under the influence of alcohol.
Jota’s club medical team stated that although he did not suffer any serious injuries, he will undergo regular check-ups to ensure a full recovery before returning to training.
This incident serves as a stark reminder of the dangers of drunk driving and has reignited the debate about the responsibility involved in transporting public figures.
