Belgium will test breathalyzer checkpoints in garages to prevent drunk driving

Belgium is launching a pilot project to install breathalyzer-integrated barriers at the exits of public parking garages and facilities. The system is designed to prevent drivers who test positive for alcohol from leaving the premises in their vehicles.

This initiative serves as a new measure aimed at reducing traffic accidents related to impaired driving. The project represents a proactive effort by Belgian authorities to utilize infrastructure-based technology to enforce sobriety among motorists before they enter public roads.
