If you are hiring a car from Malaga Costa del Sol Airport when you arrive in Spain you will be pleased to ear that the country has rejected breathalysers for cars on the basis that “the only safe way to drive is with zero alcohol in your system”.
Alcolocks have been made obligatory for all new cars in France as they stop vehicles functioning if drivers breathing into them have had too much to drink.
Spanish traffic bosses have rejected the Alcolocks as they believe the decision whether to drive should not be about how much alcohol you have drunk but more about whether you have drunk at all. Motorists are legally authorised to take the wheel in Spain as long as they don’t have over 0.05 per cent alcohol in their blood (0.03% for new drivers).

This is a national policy. Unlike the United States where NFTB has a bigger influence in car safety.
