Gao Xiaosong, the 42-year-old singer, music producer and director was three times over the legal
alcohol limit when he crashed his Infiniti SUV into a car stopped at a red light in Beijing May 9. A blood
test showed Gao had 243.04 milligrams of alcohol for 100 milliliters of blood, well over the 80 milligram
limit within a 100 milliliters of blood.
On Tuesday afternoon the man known to million for his harsh (严厉的) comments to participants on
China's Got Talent had to face the judge himself at Beijing Dongcheng District People's Court under
China's newly amended(修改的) Road Traffic Safety Law.
"I've nothing to defend myself only regret," he told the courtroom filled with people. "I always thought
alcohol could bring me freedom, but it never occurred to me that drunk driving will rid others of their
freedom. I'll be responsible for all the loss it has caused. This incident showed my irresponsibility for life. I'm willing to be a volunteer for my life promoting the non-drunk driving."
A day earlier at an administrative(行政的) punishment hearing, wearing an orange detention suit, he
was banned from driving for five years and fined 1, 000 yuan for having an expired(过期的) license.
On May 10 he was pictured at Beijing's traffic police headquarters where he turned down requests for
interviews, but wrote on a piece of paper, "sorry, never drive when drunk."
Now he has become the first celebrity(名人) to be punished under the tough new rules that came into
effect on May 1. Guo Shudong, the first driver sentenced since the new law was introduced, was jailed
for four months for being twice over the legal limit on May 9.
Gao, famous for campus song "My Deskmate" in the 1990s, was replaced by music producer and
