In what could be the biggest shake-up of drink-drive laws since the introduction of the breathalyser 40 years ago, Ministers are hoping for a substantial cut in drink related offences.
Police can currently carry out a breath test only if a motorist has been driving erratically, been involved in an accident or committed another offence while driving.
The proposed changes would allow breath tests to be carried out at any time, with roadside checkpoints being set up at points where police were confident they could catch lawbreakers.
And while Government's have been shy about such moves before, it's understood that the latest Christmas campaign against drink-driving show that increasing the number of tests leads to a fall in convictions.
