WARSAW A Polish judge will soon face a judge himself after being caught driving the wrong way down a one-way road while under the influence of alcohol in the central city of Radom, the daily *** Rzeczpospolita *** reported Friday as quoted by AFP. The judge had a blood alcohol content of 2.3 percent, according to the newspaper, far above the 0.2 percent legal limit in Poland. The judge has been suspended from his duties pending a disciplinary hearing. Drink driving, a criminal offence in Poland, carries a penalty of up to two years in jail.
