The bill would let police set up well‑lit checkpoints where any driver can be asked to blow into a breathalyzer, without needing any sign of intoxication. Refusing the test would automatically suspend or revoke the driver’s license, and a first‑offense DUI could bring up to six months in jail and a fine of up to ₱80,000. The law also requires video recording of each test and a central database to keep the process transparent.
