Headline should be 0/700 drivers drunk
The ODT headline:
The gauntlet for drink-drivers is getting narrower, Dunedin police say, after hundreds of motorists were breath-tested in the city yesterday.
Constable Nick Turner, of Dunedin, said their impairment team tested 700 drivers during their shift yesterday.
During one checkpoint in Brighton at 4.30pm, 24 drivers were found to have alcohol on their breath, which suggested people were having a beer before driving home, Const Turner said.
None of the drivers was found to be over the legal alcohol limit.
This should be a good news story. 700 people were tested and not a single one was over the legal limit.
It’s great that the 24 people who had a small amount of alcohol in their system knew to only have one or two drinks, to remain safe.
