In this regard, he noted that the new fines for alcohol will "greatly concerned" and has compared the 1,000 euros that will lead to sanction exceeding the limit exceeding 0.25 mg / l to 135 euros in France, 527 euros in Italy and 150 euros in Belgium with which is punishable driving with that rate of alcohol.
It has also warned of the "problem of false positive" controls drug, which can cause "many drugs" by failing to establish the reform no graduation of the substance in the body as in the case of alcohol, that below 0.25 mg / l is not punishable. "We agree that we must fight against drugs, but the way to fight it is always the same: the disciplinary issue, the collector issue," he stated.
