Outside the house, everyone is afraid to encounter such an irresponsible driver on the road, because no one knows what kind of accident will happen next.

In Melbourne, 23% of car accidents are caused by drunk driving and drunk driving. Even more frightening is the fact that 30% of all road traffic accidents that cause death are the effects of alcohol.

According to statistics from the Victoria Police, of the 8,941 drunk drivers caught by the police last year, 2,453 had had previous records.

In other words, these people are habitual offenders who cannot be reformed and have no repentance.

On the 20th of this year, Melbourne’s road surface visibility was very low that day, but there was a driver who rushed to the road during the morning rush hour.

The average speed of the car reached 100km/h. Then, without any surprises, he ran into a normal taxi!

And when he crashed, he was slamming on the effect of alcohol and waved his hand out of the window. His right arm was cracked and flew out of the window!

In a matter of moments, he was unconscious, and the innocent taxi was completely scrapped. What’s even more frightening is that this accident happened just before the morning peak of work, causing serious traffic congestion in West Melbourne. I don’t know how many unlucky office workers get late!

Not long ago, there was a drunk Asian woman driver who was unresponsive at night because of drinking, and immediately hit a man and the man directly flew out of 10 meters, and fell to the ground without sound… .
Immediately after the police arrived, the woman who drove was arrested. The woman was drunk. As a result, the police asked the woman to take an alcohol test. However, the woman still refused to cooperate.

For these tragedies that could have been avoided, the Victorian police decided to strike out with a huge sum of 1.1 billion and launched a massive Toward Zero campaign!

Their goal is to control the death toll from the Victorian car accident to less than 200 by 2020!

In order to achieve this goal, the most important thing is to punish drunk driving!

From April 30, 2018, Melbourne will begin to implement the strictest rules in the history of the whole country.

After April 30, driving in Melbourne, as long as the blood alcohol content data exceeds the minimum punishable standard (BAC: 0.05), the driver’s license will be directly revoked!

Even a low-alcohol drunk driver (BAC: 0.05-0.07) will be strictly punished!

The investigated driver must also be forced to complete a drunk driving driver study plan before regaining his driver’s license.

In addition, these drivers will also be forced to install alcohol test locks on their cars.

This device will test the driver before the car is ignited. If the driver cannot pass the breath test, he cannot start the car.

And, even more amazingly, the device also records the number of times the driver tried to start the vehicle while drinking. If the driver has been driving the vehicle while drinking, it will be completely locked by the police!

Such real-time monitoring equipment can effectively control the behavior of drunk driving drivers who do not change their behavior.

The cost of installation and subsequent maintenance of these alcohol locks will be borne by the individual who violates the regulations.

As a result, drivers who are trying to drink will be discouraged. It is predicted that increasing penalties can reduce the driving accident of 70% alcohol, and installing alcohol locks can reduce traffic accidents by 63%!

Xiao Bian also reminds everyone, do not forget to drink without driving, driving without drinking!

In short, we hope that under the efforts of the Victorian police, the number of people who drunk driving can be significantly reduced, and the safety index for road trips can be higher and higher.
