drink drive assist

Ah, the dream of a car that helps you dodge the legal nightmare of drink driving—sadly, no automotive miracle yet. "Drink drive assist" isn't a standard feature; however, some modern vehicles come equipped with alcohol detection systems, such as breathalyzers integrated into the ignition, which prevent the engine from starting if you're over the limit.

Key points to note:

• Alcohol detection systems use breath samples or touch sensors to estimate blood alcohol content (BAC).
• These systems are usually aftermarket additions or available in some commercial fleet vehicles.
• They are not widespread in private cars and certainly don't replace responsible drinking and driving behaviour.

For now, the best 'assist' is to call a taxi or use a rideshare app rather than relying on tech to bail you out of a DUI.
