How I stopped my 81-year-old father from drinking and driving. An interview about the path to installing the alcohol interlock. *We spoke to a family whose car was equipped with an alcohol interlock device that would prevent the engine from starting after drinking alcohol. *
* Tokai Denshi Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Fuji City, Shizuoka
Prefecture, Representative Director Tetsuya Sugimoto) develops and sells alcohol detection systems, IT roll call systems, and operation management systems.
We are developing the alcohol interlock device “ALC-ZEROII,” which “prevents the engine from starting after drinking alcohol,” and are working to help prevent drunk driving. Up until now, we have been selling to corporations, but due to the drunken accident involving a white license plate truck that occurred in Yachimata City, Chiba Prefecture in June 2021, we have received an increase in inquiries from individuals, so we are expanding our sales to corporations. We have set up a system that can be introduced to the general public. * *
We recently interviewed two families who had alcohol interlocks installed in their cars about the process that led to their
installation. Although there are many things that are difficult to talk about openly, such as drinking problems in the family, he spoke candidly in the hope that it will be helpful to those who have similar problems. *
