The epitome of this topic focuses on the problem of drunken driving is one of the major reasons for on-road accidents and deaths. Alcohol affects the drunk driver’s judgmental abilities and driving adversely. Many solutions have been proposed to reduce the after effects of drunk driving. However, most of these solutions were based on certain prototypes which consisted of control units or computerized protection systems including wireless monitoring facilities. This resulted in having systems with lots of demerits, high cost and slow response in the case of remote monitoring and decision making.To avoid all the mentioned disadvantages, this paper introduces a simple, cheap and highly responsive design. The proposed design is based on simple electronic components with processing and decision made locally and does not involve wireless transmission to guarantee the required fast response. This Arduino based system detects the presence of alcohol content in the breath of the driver and immobilizes the vehicle accordingly.
