The driver of the fatal accident in Koningshooikt, Louis W., received an alcohol interlock for life, among other things. Exceptional: it is only the ninth time that a judge has imposed that sanction. Such an alcohol lock can easily cost three thousand euros per year. Police judges are therefore reluctant to impose such a sanction, because not everyone can afford it. “And there is no ready-made solution for this,” says Stef Willems of traffic institute Vias.
