Drunk driving continues to be a major concern in Uttar Pradesh, with rising incidents of accidents and fatalities linked to intoxicated drivers. In response, law enforcement agencies have intensified crackdowns on drunk driving, setting up checkposts and conducting random breathalyzer tests. Drivers found under the influence of alcohol face stringent penalties, including fines, license suspensions, and even jail time for repeat offenders.
Public awareness campaigns highlighting the dangers of drunk driving have been launched to change people’s attitudes toward alcohol consumption and driving. Despite these efforts, the persistence of the issue suggests that more needs to be done in terms of preventive measures and stricter enforcement.
