Russian drivers will begin to check for alcohol in an accelerated manner

To date, traffic police officers can focus on several signs of possible alcohol or drug intoxication. This is the smell of alcohol from the mouth, instability of the posture, impaired speech, a sharp change in the color of the skin of the face or behavior that does not correspond to the situation.

If at least one of them is revealed, then the driver is offered to pass a test using a breathalyzer, and only in the presence of witnesses, with the obligatory video filming and filling in the relevant papers. Depending on what result the device will give, the motorist is either released or sent for a medical examination.
