Drunk-riding of a bicycle is dangerous and the cause of injuries and accidents. Furthermore, just like drunk driving, it is against the law in Japan. However, many people are not aware about the dangers and illegality of riding a bike compared to drunk driving. Kooowho’s Alcoho-Lock by Grey Tokyo is a totally new solution consisting of a lock and an exclusive application. When cyclists are about to unlock, the alcohol density level is checked by breathing into the lock. If alcohol is detected from cyclist’s breath, an alert is automatically sent to the pre-registered partner’s smartphone. The partner can stop their cyclist from riding their bike.
