Satyam independently conceived the solutions for the problem of drunken driving. One mentions that the system would be able to ascertain the alcohol level of the driver through palm contacts on the steering/handle grip. Sensing that the driver has consumed alcohol, the onboard system is going to ask the drive some questions. If the driver is not able to answer the questions correctly, then the system will prompt for the password. If still the driver does not manage to get it correct, the system will lock the ignition. Another idea to achieve this is to use an on-board breath analyser to find out alcohol content in the breath and accordingly jam the ignition, if the detected range is beyond a certain limit.
