Description

Andy Stenton reports on the Government’s Christmas drink driving campaign (includes recording of hardhitting TV advert). Minister for Roads and Traffic, Christopher Chope, says the war on drink driving is being won; John Knight, father of a drink driving victim, says the law doesn’t go far enough and calls for random breath testing; Peter Joslin, Warwickshire Chief Constable, says the police do not have enough power but the adverts will work.
