My buddy and I were discussing the allowed blood alcohol content for driving (purely hypothetically) and how it varies across countries and then we stumbled upon the question in the title. Would be curious to hear if you guys know any good examples.

    You forgot the unusually humane reasoning:

    The law recognizes that the desire to be free is inherent to any human being, and an escape attempt can’t be punished as such.

    Everything’s else you said applies however. If the escapee does any kind of damage to people or things in the process they can be charged for those. Just not for trying to break out.
