The Vestre Landsret upheld the lower court's decision to increase the probation period for the defendant's second offense of driving under the influence of spirits to five years. The defendant argued against the extension, but the court emphasized the need for stricter measures following repeated violations of traffic safety laws. Consequently, the original judgment was confirmed with the specific modification raising the probation duration.
