Drinking and Driving Advice & Information
Although the level of drinking and driving has dropped dramatically over the last three decades, around 250 people are still killed in drink drive accidents every year. It is not just the drivers who have been drinking who suffer, but often their passengers, people in other vehicles, pedestrians, cyclists or motorcyclists, and the families of everyone involved.

Despite 30 years of drink drive education and enforcement, around 100,000 people are still caught drink driving annually, and face a driving ban of at least 12 months, a large fine and possible imprisonment. It is also an offence to be unfit to drive through drink, even if below the legal limit, or drugs. The penalties are same as for the 'over the limit' drink offence.
