what if you wear driving gloves, no seat belt, and you wear a mask? or rip the camera off?

So what happens if your drunk friends fondle your shifter and reek of booze?

I don't like that. Sure it'll keep people from driving drunk, but what if after a while your vehicle just stinks of Alcohol, even if you don't(like the cigarette-effect? Then what, it won't EVER start for you? I think it's creepy and much to intrusive. :eek:
Another reason I won't buy a Nissan....

I could see this being a real issue.
Just think, if the system should be faulty, you could get in your car and find that it won't start because it thinks you're drunk.
It couldn't be standard. I wouldn't see why anyone would pay extra for something like that though. Part of the navigation system maybe?
It would probably be something that would make insurance cheaper though, kind of like daytime running lights.

the funny thing is that the people who would buy this are prolly the least likely to drink and drive...then again if they are stupid enough to need it...
