The end of drink driving?

News

The US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has announced that they are working on two new technologies that will prevent your car from starting if you’re drunk. The technology will detect if your blood-alcohol level is over the legal limit and prevent you from driving if you’re over the legal limit.

At an event in Washington DC, the NHTSA revealed the two prototypes which they have been working on. One is a sensor which will be located in either the steering wheel or the drivers side door, that can detect your alcohol level by your breath; basically a breathalyser. The other is a touch sensor, located on the gear stick or ignition switch that will scan your blood-alcohol level.

This new technology could prevent thousands of accidents in the U.K alone which would also help bring down insurance costs and save many lives.

“We had an urgent need for a same day courier service to pick up a package from Kent and bring it to Slough. The Today Team had the best price I could find and they picked up the parcel in only just over an hour after I booked them. The customer service team were so helpful and very lovely. We will be using them again in the future for sure. Highly recommended.”

“We’ve stayed loyal to Today Team for years now because they get the job done, it’s a great no fuss service. I have enough to deal with managing my client’s expectations and making sure production runs smoothly without worrying about the transport side of things. They have overcome every challenge I have thrown at them, including a project delivering hundreds of posters across the UK with little to no notice”

Once again they have proven their commitment to the customer and shown their standards of service are sky high!”

“Our experience could not have been better! An important piece of equipment had failed that needed to be repaired, I called through at 15:00 it was collected within the hour and delivered to the manufactures next morning, we were kept up dated all the way through the process.”
