The number of drink drive deaths in Scotland has doubled in the last ten years, with Glasgow having the highest amount of 'driving under the influence’ offences in the country.
A report from Transport Scotland published today shows there were 20 fatalities in 2020 compared with 10 in 2010.
The overall number of alcohol-related casualties was down, however, by 66 per cent over the same period, from 740 to 250. Almost half of Scottish motorists (49.5 per cent) involved in a crash last year were breathalysed by Police, with 3.5 per cent testing positive.
