'100 drink-drivers caught every day'

|The Herald
AN average of nearly 100 drivers a day were caught drink-driving in the past three years, new figures show.
-
Road safety charity IAM RoadSmart, which obtained the data, said it demonstrates the need for “a shift in mindset” among drivers.
It found 108,000 motorists in Britain received drink-drive endorsements on their licence between 2022 and 2024.
That is an average of 99 per day.
Drivers aged 25-39 were the worst offenders, with 48,000 caught. That was followed by those aged 40-65 (40,000 caught) and 17-24 (15,000 caught).
Just 3,000 drivers older than 65 were convicted of drink-driving during the same period.
