Gardai will be out in force this Christmas, targeting a number of offences including drink driving.
With today being St Stephen's Day, there are warnings that the morning after can be a particularly dangerous period for drink drivers. Drinkaware is encouraging the public to be mindful this festive season, and to take extra care when deciding to go behind the wheel after a big night out.
According to Drinkaware, it takes at least one hour to process one standard drink. Examples of a standard drink are half a pint of beer, 100ml glass of wine, or a standard measure of spirits.
