Uber partners Gurgaon Police to curb drunken driving
April 28, 2016
Online taxi aggregator Uber today said it has partnered with Gurgaon Police for installing breathalysers at bars and pubs in a bid to help them curb drunken driving in the city.
The first four Uber Breathalysers have been installed at DLF Cyber Hub.
The Uber Breathalyser is a kiosk that calculates the blood alcohol content in a person's body through an app that is fixed to the device.
If the person's BAC is higher than 0.03, they are advised to avoid driving and instead take a cab.
Earlier this month, Ola had partnered with Delhi Police for a similar initiative in Delhi.
Gurgaon is the second city to launch Uber Breathalysers after Mumbai.
