Buenos Aires province's Transport Ministry has barred influencer Eugenia Rolón from obtaining a driver's license after a crash in Mar de Ajó, where she drove drunk and without a permit. The 23-year-old hit a light post with 1.89 grams of alcohol per liter in her blood, in her partner Iñaki Gutiérrez's car. The sanction is preventive and will last until a final resolution.
On Thursday morning, around 8:57 a.m., Eugenia Rolón, a La Libertad Avanza militant and well-known influencer who has managed President Javier Milei's TikTok account, was involved in a traffic accident in Mar del Tuyú, near Mar de Ajó, in Buenos Aires province. Security camera footage shows the Honda Fit she was driving making an erratic turn at a corner on Rivadavia street at 400, veering off the road and crashing into a streetlight post.
Police from Operativo Sol stopped her right away. The breathalyzer test showed 1.89 grams of alcohol per liter of blood, far exceeding the province's zero-tolerance limit. Rolón also lacked a National Driver's License and was driving her partner Iñaki Gutiérrez's vehicle, whose blue title did not authorize driving without a permit. The car was impounded and has an outstanding traffic fine debt of nearly 900,000 pesos.
The Transport Ministry, headed by Martín Marinucci, acted on its own initiative and, through the Provincial Court of Infractions in Dolores, issued a preventive ban on granting a license, based on Law 13.927 and National Transit Law 24.449. The measure addresses the 'two serious faults' that endangered public safety and will remain in place until a final ruling in the ongoing criminal and infraction cases.
Gutiérrez picked up Rolón from the station after her detention. The incident contradicts the couple's pro-law-and-order stance on social media, where they advocate 'those who do it, pay for it.' No injuries were reported, but the case carries political fallout for the 23-year-old.
