About this listen
A proposed reduction in Spain’s drink-driving limit promised a clear message: zero alcohol, zero risk. So why did it fail?
In this episode of Unscripted, Mark Nolan explores the real reason the law did not pass and why the answer is both logical and deeply frustrating. From misconceptions about alcohol limits to the uncomfortable truth about human behaviour, this is not just a discussion about legislation, but about responsibility.
Mark challenges the idea that lowering limits alone changes behaviour, while firmly arguing that it still matters. Education, perception, and personal decision-making sit at the heart of the issue and the consequences of getting it wrong are far greater than many are willing to admit.
This is a candid, thought-provoking reflection on road safety, policy, and the simple truth that often gets ignored:
If you are driving, do not drink. If you drink, do not drive.
