Could this new law in France open an entirely new market for in-car breathalyzers?
This new law could definitely cause a stir, not only in France but bordering nation's as well; but will it be positive? I think it is extremely innovative and responsible to think to have breathalyzers inside cars especially with the outrageous amount of intoxicated vehicle deaths each year. This could definitely open many opportunities for marketing, advertizing and hopefully increased sales for car companies all around the world. I think it is a good idea and they should see how the public reacts and then maybe it will spread to other countries around the world.
What would be the most effective way of using this technology to its full potential? Would the car not start unless you used the breathalyzer? And then if you failed the test what would happen? Would it make a phone call for you? These are questions the product companies will have to figure out soon before they put it on the market. Drunk driving is no joke and I would not be opposed to having a breathalyzer in my car but I would definitely find it rather annoying or inconvenient if every time I needed to use my car I would have to blow into the indicator.
Would you buy a car for the purpose of having one of these breathalyzers automatically installed in it? Do you think it is an infringement of choice to make someone breathalyze before getting behind the wheel?
