The province of Manitoba, Canada, has prided itself for a couple of decades now on having some of the toughest drunk-driving laws in the world. As of this morning, those laws just got tougher....... they are announcing on the radio that 1st-time offenders who have caused any sort of collision, or bodily harm or loss of life, will have their vehicles fitted with a breathalyzer-like device. The driver will have to blow into the device and pass the blood-alcohol test before the vehicle will start.

The thing I'm not sure about is.... what is to stop these people from having others do the "blowing" for them? I'm attempting to find the answer to that, haven't found the newsarticle yet.


No matter how tough the anti drunk-driving laws get, they never seem quite tough enough do they? Especially if you've had a few run-ins with drunk drivers in the past or had friends/family who were killed by them.... like me.
