Hector Barbera gets driving license suspended and 1200 euro fine

The story of Hector Barbera being involved in a DUI and whether he was behind the wheel when the police stopped him or if it was his friend that was driving who was supposedly drunk as a skunk under the strict Spanish law, we admit is rather confusing especially following his press release stating that he wasn’t three times over the legal limit, but it was his friend.

However, for the Tribunal Superior de Justicia de la Comunitat Valenciana (Valencia Superior Court of Justice) it wasn’t confusing as Traffic Court no.
11 decided to fine Barbera 1,200 euros and suspended his driving license for ten months.
For someone who stated that he was barely over the limit getting your license suspended for 10 months is a pretty drastic measure when they usually dock points from your permit.
