Convicted drink drivers should still be able to drive to work, according to one TD.
Michael Healy Rae wants a permit system introduced so people off the road for driving over the alcohol limit can still get to their job.
The Independent TD for Kerry says some people should qualify for exemptions from the current laws:
“If they can make it clear that their families are going to be detrimentally affected by the fact that they won’t be able to drive to work – if a permit style system was introduced that they can use their car from home to work and back again and absolutely nowhere else – then that should be a possibility that should be looked at.”
