Volvo Alcoguard
One in three fatal traffic accidents in Europe today are alcohol related. Quite clearly, if we could reduce drinking and
driving, in combination with lower speeds and a more widespread use of safety belts, then the number of fatal traffic
accidents all over the world could be radically reduced.
This is the prime reason why Volvo Cars now launches Alcoguard.
Volvo’s integrated alcohol lock is based on a wireless hand unit that directly and reliably tells you whether or not you
may drive. If you get a green light you’re OK. A red light means that you won’t be able to start the car.
Despite the fact that the police in many countries have increased alcohol controls considerably in recent years, there
are still far too many drivers who don’t take these problems seriously and just take a chance.
Alcohol related traffic accidents today are a global problem.
