Lower the drink drive limit in England and Wales to the equivalent of Scotland

Petition Details

In England and Wales, the alcohol limit for drivers is 80 milligrammes of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood. On December 5th 2014 the alcohol limit for drivers in Scotland reduced from 80 to 50 milligrams of alcohol in every 100 millilitres of blood.
This is far safer.

Additional Information

The Scottish Government say they have changed their drink drive limit to bring Scotland in line with most other European countries, to save lives and make Scotland’s roads safer.
Many of the functions that we depend on to drive safely are affected when we drink alcohol:
the brain takes longer to receive messages from the eye
processing information becomes more difficult
slower reaction times.
blurred and double vision, affects your ability to see things clearly while you are driving.
