Closed petition Change the legal drink driving limits to ZERO
Closed on
Change the law around driving a vehicle after consuming alcohol so that it is an offence to drive with a blood alcohol content over 0%.
There are many variables to people’s tolerance of alcohol, and we should not allow individuals to choose to drink and drive, and put innocent lives at risk.
In 2022 it has been estimated that over 200 people were killed in collisions in Great Britain where at least one driver was over the drink-drive limit. It's time for a change. We need to take a stand against drunk driving and make our roads safer for everyone.
Changing the legal drink limit for driving from 0.08% BAC down zero-tolerance policy could save people from injury and death.
