ZERO TOLERANCE IN DRINK AND DRIVE!!!!

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

I lost my nephew age 34 to a drunk driver in March of this year, he was a kind hearted and fun person too be with.
Volunterd for the RNLI and family and friends loved him and will miss him.

Why encourage people to drink 2 pints of beer or 2 glasses of wine as we are all different.

I had written to our local MP with a reply from the Minister of transport on road safety suggesting that the government are cracking down on drink and driving and saying they have introduced more tougher approaches of awareness with drink driving and feel that this a way to go.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Change the law for drink driving limit to zero and an instant ban
