UK officers from Dyfed-Powys Police in Wales recently carried out vehicle checks on a Saturday evening shift. The focus for these checks were on enforcement of drink drive legislation and the officers stopped a number of other vehicles during the evening.
By midnight the officers had conducted more than 85 breath tests. There was only one positive test, provided by a male driver who blew a reading of 85 (the alcohol/breath limit in England and Wales is 35).
The officers conducted other relevant checks on vehicles and occupants during the evening. A number of vehicles showed without insurance, while three people were reported for drug offences and a firearms search was carried out on one of the uninsured vehicles.
