This report on 1972 Breathalyser offences is more comprehensive than earlier reports issued by the Department of the Attorney General and of Justice.

  • driving with the prescribed content of alcohol
  • driving under the influence
  • refusal to take breathalyser test
  • aid and abet breathalyser test
