IrelandThe Road Safety Authority (RSA) in Ireland is distributing breathalysers at music festivals, sports events, and other gatherings during the summer to encourage people to check their alcohol levels before driving. Over 5,830 tests have been conducted so far, with nearly half of users exceeding the legal alcohol limit of 50mg per 100ml of blood. Officials note that many individuals, especially men, underestimate their intoxication level and often delay driving after testing positive.
