Closed the passengers of young drivers not to be over alcohol limit

Closed on

To reduce accidents involving young drivers without imposing over the top restrictions (such as limiting night time driving or only allowing family members to be passengers) a more sensible approach would be to make it illegal for any passenger who is over the drink drive limit to travel in a car driven by a young driver. In addition to the passengers being less distracting this would reduce the number of young drivers taking a load of mates on a night out, which is when these accidents are more likely to happen.
