Mr Murali Pillai asked the Minister for Home Affairs over the past five years, how many drivers between the ages of 18 and 21, as well as probationary drivers, have been arrested for the offence of drink driving.
Between 2014 and 2018, on average, about 17 motorists between the ages of 18 and 21 were arrested for drink-driving annually. The corresponding figure for motorists with probationary licences was about 111. The table below provides the detailed statistics.
