The man had a blood alcohol reading more than double the level usually considered lethal.

The 25-year old driver, who was not named, registered 0.851 blood alcohol content. Bulgaria's legal limit is 0.05 percent, and 0.40 is often fatal.

Bulgarian police have upped the number of road checks this summer following a series of serious accidents. Over 1,000 people were killed in road accidents in 2007 in Bulgaria, which has a population of 7.7 million.
