Mothers Against Drunk Driving say it's another win in the battle to get drunk drivers off the road -- Saint John president Lora Skead says new provincial regulations for drivers under 21 are hitting a key age group involved in impaired driving crashes.
Beginning June 1st -- new drivers under 21 and those with less than three years of experience must maintain a blood alcohol level of zero percent.
Skead tells Tide News the group is still trying to get the legal limit lowered from point-zero-eight to point-zero-five under the Criminal Code:
The new regulations for young drivers apply to residents and visitors alike who are driving motor and commercial vehicles or motorcycles.
