The days of having a beer after work and driving home will soon be over – and that’s not
just because of the lockdown restrictions.
Once South Africa’s strict new drunk-driving laws have been passed, drivers won’t be
allowed to drink alcohol at all.
Currently, it’s still legal to get behind the wheel if your blood-alcohol level is under
0.05g per 100ml. The new bill adopts a zero-tolerance approach to drunk driving by
setting the legal blood-alcohol limit for drivers at 0%.
