On the implementation of dissuasive measures for driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs 

Petition addressed to: Petitionsausschuss des Europäischen Parlaments

The petitioner cites an example of a fatal road accident in Mallorca involving a 15-year-old minor and a driver who was five times over the legal alcohol limit and who failed in her duty to help the victim. He asks the Committee on Petitions to call on the Commission and Member States to incorporate into legislation the obligation to include a breathalyser system in new models of vehicles. The petitioner also calls for a hardening of penalties provided under the criminal codes of Member States for offenses involving reckless homicide.
