Drinking And Driving
You should never drink and drive. It's always better
to be safe than sorry, and the safest amount to drink
if you are driving is none at all.
Drink driving convictions are taken very seriously by
insurers. Convicted drivers returning to the roads may
face difficulty in obtaining insurance and will certainly
have to pay premium increases of at least 100%. The level
of cover may be reduced - for example from comprehensive
down to third party fire and theft. These higher premiums
and cover restrictions can well last for a number of years.
