Let’s party, but do not drink and drive

It’s not just a question of how many glasses.

The number of drink-driving cases and imprisonment sentences meted out in Singapore have risen tremendously. In 2011, there were 520 drink-driving cases in which 14 were given imprisonment sentences. In 2016, this increased to 1,340 cases in which 187 were given imprisonment sentences.

First time offenders

If you are convicted of drink-driving, you are liable to a fine of between $2,000 and $10,000 and/or up to 1 year’s jail for a first-time offence.

Repeat offenders

Repeat offenders face fines of between $5,000 and $20,000 and up to 2 years’ jail.  If drink driving causes harm, penalties will be higher.

Driving disqualification

Offenders will also be disqualified from holding or obtaining a driver’s licence for at least 2 years (or at least 5 years for repeat offenders).
