Your car won't let you drive drunk!

Will it be that science fiction is reaching us? In any case, we know that alcohol should not be mixed with the steering wheel because there are almost always catastrophic consequences.

To give you an idea, 8 out of 10 people injured in traffic accidents are related to the alcohol only in Mexico City; in the United States, 28 die a day; In Spain, 1,500 die a year from this cause...and so we can continue to list terrible numbers and figures of car accidents worldwide, directly associated with irresponsible drivers who drink more .

Your car won't let you drive drunk!

Of course, there are also movements and government organizations that try to stop the statistics, but the drunks are still behind the wheel.

Technology at our service in two ways

Fortunately, there is a team of American engineers working on several methods to make it the car itself that detects the amount of alcohol in blood .How is that possible?

1.Touch

Cars of the future, of course, will be smart, and just by touching a touch screen (on the steering wheel or start button) the vehicle can measure If the driver is able to drive.

Your car won't let you drive drunk!

The System for the Safety of Alcohol Detection in Drivers , DADSS for its figures in English, explains the How this device works: the vehicle emits infrared radiation that is partially reflected in the skin and is analyzed by the light emitter.The reflected light beam contains information regarding the chemical variables of the driver, for example how much alcohol is in your blood.

2.Breath

The other alternative proposed by DADSS is that based on breath, a system much more widely known to all.But contrary to the one used by the police, this device will not require the driver to blow under pressure, as it will be enough to be sitting at the wheel so that the car measures the amount of alcohol in the blood.

Your car won't let you drive drunk!

It is assumed that in the cars of the future the driver will not have to blow...

If an unwanted amount of alcohol is measured on any of the chosen devices, the car simply does not start.

A possible date

DADSS believes that these devices could be on the market by 2020, conveniently close to our future.

The paradox is that neither of them will come with the car, but there will be to buy it and install it independently.

There are those who question this decision since it is not an accessory to beautify your car, or put it more cool , but something that can effectively save lives.

What do you think, is it possible that cars can control drunk driving? Meanwhile, it is convenient that if you drink too much do not drive, and if you leave in a group there is a designated driver.
