Vigilance house, since last week, suspended the use of Alcohol Blow machine by traffic officers around the country.
According to an inside source, an anonymous impromptu checkup on the roadblock points discovered that the machines did not serve the intended purpose.
“These checks are entrenching drunk-driving instead of eradicating. That is all I can say for now,” stated the source.
An internal Memo seen by Ureport directed that all the Alcohol Blow gadgets be handed back to relevant authorities for safekeeping by Monday, November 25, 2019.
