    I've been searching for a definitive answer on the rules of accompanying drivers. Coming up to Christmas now, I would like to be able to drive my friend/relatives home from nights out. If the accompanying driver is inebriated am I breaking the law?

    I searched the RSA website, and came up with this document

    http://www.rsa.ie/NEWS/upload/File/822_RSA_Strategy_ENG.pdf

    which confuses me further...

    page 90 of 100

    "
    The person acting as accompanying driver will be subject to drink driving legislation and mandatory
    alcohol testing.
    The accompanying driver is not subject to drink driving legislation and mandatory alcohol testing.
    "
    This needs to be cleared up, or is it simply a loophole?
