What do you think of the Governments proposal to introduce random breath tests?
I think its a good idea but I have a concern for the way it will be operated. A lot of people, espiecially over holiday periods go out drinking and then drive into work the next morning and are still over the limit because of the amount of alcohol in their system but its questionable if this hinders their ability to drive carefully, I mean you can be silghtly over the limit the next morning but not feel in any way drunk.
I think the Gardai will target these drivers rather than go out on the quiet country roads at 2am to get the drivers who are really drink driving and where most of the accidents happen. It will be just like the speed checks on the 50kmp zones. It will be another money spinner and we'll see the stats for the amount of people caught drink driving but its really not being affective.
