    They don’t arbitrarily hand those things out… Don’t drink and drive and it’s not a problem.

      Our entire bar/nightclub economy would collapse if nobody drank and drove. Not defending it, just pointing out America has terrible public transportation and very little means to access these places without driving.

            In the other article linked by that one it says it’s just a recommendation. Seems weird.

            A federal advisory board recommended yesterday that safety regulators require “alcohol impairment detection systems to be included in all new vehicles.” The move is just a recommendation, but it has the weight of law behind it.

        If they become mandatory, they’re probably not going to restrict where you can go.

          Hopefully, but it’s still a device to maintain and check at special government approved companies.
