"NHTSA Implements Mandatory Anti-DUI Tech in New Cars"
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is working on implementing a rule that would require new cars to have technology to prevent drunk or impaired driving. The NHTSA has issued a notice to collect information on the state of technology and its safe deployment. The technology, required by the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, aims to address alcohol impairment, a leading cause of road deaths. Options being researched include breath and blood alcohol testing, as well as eye movement monitoring. The rule is expected to take years to be fully implemented, with automakers given three years to introduce the technology.
