Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Vehicle immobilization is a road safety measure to prevent a driver under the influence of alcohol from continuing to drive. The officer will proceed to immobilize the vehicle when the test result is positive, unless another duly authorized person can take charge of driving. This means that if there is a passenger with a valid license and in optimal condition (testing negative), they can drive and avoid immobilization. Mere tiredness or not carrying the physical license document are not automatic grounds for immobilization in the context of an alcohol check.
