Question to the Department for Transport:
To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to include the introduction or trial of alcohol interlocks in the road safety strategy; and whether they plan to mandate the use of alcohol interlocks for anyone convicted of drink driving.
In 2021, the Government commissioned PACTS (Parliamentary Advisory Council for Transport Safety) to publish a report on alcohol interlocks: Locking Out The Drink Driver: Using alcohol interlocks to reduce drink driving in the UK.
The government keeps motoring offences under review, including those for drink driving.
The Department is developing its Road Safety Strategy and will set out more details in due course.
