More than four decades of research demonstrate that an alcohol interlock is an effective and efficient tool to monitor drink driving behaviour, prevent recidivism and reduce alcohol-related crashes and fatalities. TIRF is a world-leader on this issue, notably with respect to implementing efficacious interlock programs. Check out all the research and Knowledge Transfer (KT) activities TIRF has conducted over the years on this tool here.
“Tackling safety issues requires solving complex problems and TIRF’s ability to provide forums to connect government, business, industry, traffic safety agencies, and non-profit organizations helps to identify bold and multi faceted solutions to some of our most persistent road safety issues. The ability to bring together stakeholders in road safety provides an opportunity for collaboration and connection that would otherwise not exist.”
