Alcohol Limits

limits_1
I don’t usually get up early at the weekends, however, we got up early on a Saturday to go on a coach trip. Being first on we were asked to sit right at the front, behind the driver. We were on  one of the modern coaches with a huge window at the front easily 6 feet by 10 feet, so we had a good view of the road ahead.
After picking up some more trippers and going down the equivalent of an A road, ahead we noticed some police cars slowing traffic down and stopping at random some cars. As we approached we slowed down and so a sign in Spanish which translated said “Alcohol Check”.
The police we breathalysing the stopped motorists. I had only seen this done in Australia. Now its starting in Spain. The Spanish coach driver told us that its been this way for years but the police were using it more and more especially after holidays and football matches!
