Legislation giving gardaí the power to carry out mandatory breathtesting at the scene of a crash is to be debated in the Dáil tomorrow, the first Bill to be considered by the new Government.
The Road Traffic Bill 2011 was drawn up last year to address a problem in the Road Traffic Act 2010 which, according to Attorney General, linked this new power with the introduction of lower drink driving limits.
