17th International Alcohol Interlock Symposium
Alcohol Interlocks, Technology Saving Lives

September 17–19, 2023, Oslo, Norway

The purpose of alcohol ignition interlocks is to save lives, as evidenced by recent studies which indicate that strong interlock programs reduce accidents and fatalities.

This year’s symposium will focus primarily on the European context, with emphasis on the strengths of interlock programs currently being implemented in various countries. We will take an in-depth look into the different legislative and policy-making environments, respective challenges and potential solutions. Panel discussions will address the latest issues and priorities encountered by practitioners in the implementation and development of programs across a diverse spectrum of jurisdictions.

Attendees will gain access to insightful new research in the field of alcohol interlocks and experience first-hand the latest technological advances showcased by industry leaders.
