Our Campaign
Drink-driving is one of the so-called ‘fatal four’ behaviours, which are the main causes of people being killed and seriously injured on the UK’s roads.
Our Mission - Saving lives through ‘Alcolocks’
An alcohol interlock, or ‘alcolock’, is a breathalyser device that can be installed in a vehicle to prevent a driver from using it if they have consumed alcohol above a set limit. Similar in appearance to the breathalysers police officers use on drivers at the side of the road, the alcolock is fitted to a vehicle’s ignition system, requiring a breath test before the engine can be started.
International data indicates that alcolocks can significantly reduce reoffending for both first-time and repeat offenders up to 70%.
Currently, courts in the UK cannot order convicted drink-drivers to have alcolocks fitted to their vehicles.
