New law on the cards to curb drunken driving

Lusanda Bill
19 July 2011


A new law that will make it illegal to drive after drinking any amount of alcohol is in the final stages of development.

Transport Minister S’bu Ndebele confirmed that the law is on the cards because motorists continue to get behind the wheel while under the influence of alcohol.

Ndebele says he hopes the law will come into effect sometime next year.

He added that he wants a zero-tolerance attitude to be adopted when it comes to drinking and driving.
