The road traffic Acts at present provide for preliminary roadside breath screening, or breathalysing, of a driver where a garda is of the opinion that the driver has consumed intoxicating liquor. I am considering, as part of the preparation of a new Road Traffic Bill and in accordance with the Government strategy for road safety 1998 to 2002, the possibility of a change in this legal requirement to provide for the selective application of random breath testing or screening of drivers. One variant of this could be for drivers involved in accidents to be subject to automatic testing for alcohol.
