It is thought the new legislation will also cover driving under the influence of certain prescription drugs that impair a drivers ability in a similar way to alcohol, as well as illegal drugs. Many prescription drugs have it written on the packet that you should not drive while taking them.

It is thought the police will be equipped with instant saliva drug tests to screen at the roadside and that if a driver tests positive they will be taken to a police station and retested on a calibrated machine. The penalties will likely be similar to drink driving. Roadside instant drug testing kits are already used by police in some countries.

As a child I remember my father loading the boot of the car with cheap french bottled lagers on our annual camping holiday to France, as bottled beers were so much cheaper to buy in French hypermarkets. The british supermarket prices are now so low on lager, beer & spirits that this has become a thing of the past.

A recent study by Alcohol Concern Cymru found that 77% of pub landlords questioned in the study support the minimum prices on alcohol & that many of those questioned blamed the low prices of alcohol in supermarkets for the reduced sales of alcohol in pubs.

Many pubs in both cities, towns and villages are under threat and many stand empty. In rural communities particularly the village pub can be a very valuable asset & a focus for the community.

The latest news on the french breathalyzer law is that, as was speculated , it has been now been confirmed that the new french law that requires motorists to carry NF approved breathalyzer kits in their cars from the 1st July 2012 or face fines will not actually be enforced by police until 1st November 2012.

This is good news for motorists travelling to France this summer and for manufacturers of the single use 0.05% breathalyzer kits who have struggled to keep up with sudden demand for the 0.05% BAC breathalyzer kits.

You can buy breathalyzer kits for France with NF certificate from Value Breathalysers for the new french breathalyzer law

The move by the French Government to introduce compulsary breathalyzer packs for all motorists using french roads from July 2012 has seen a large increase in sales to the French market. At the time of the decision only a few brands had pre-existing NF certificates applied to their products. Obtaining NF certificate listing is quite straight forward for manufacturers already meeting existing EU quality standards there are no additional parameters which are required and it is simply a matter of completing the LNE audit and application process.

We will see a massive expansion to the list of approved NF breathalyzers over the next few months. The existing list is in no way final or closed and many manufactuers are also obtaining a declaration of conformity to the performance standards listed in NFX20702, making their products legitimate to sell directly into the French market.

The same application process applies to digital hand held breathalyzers being sold to the french Breathalyzer market for compliance with the new law. Many of the existing models such as the DA8000 and others have existing NF certification but only applied to OEM branded boxes in French distributor own label boxes. The breathalyzers are indentical to the manufacturers original but prior to the new French law the manufacturer saw no commercial advantage to paying for LNE certification directly.

With the introduction of the French breathalyzer legislation this now changes the balance for product being imported into Europe.  Buyers will want breathalyzer models which are compliant for when they travel to Europe and will prevent them having to buy additional units or single use breathalyzer tubes. If other countries follow the French and introduce similar laws, there is nothing to stop them applying a local regional or country specific quality mark .
