Technology Saving Lives"Since 2000, the Alcohol Interlock Symposium global forum has hosted leading experts to discuss ongoing research and development regarding alcohol and drug impaired driving, interlock programs, and road traffic safety. TIRF has organized and hosted the international symposia series on alcohol interlocks in partnership with government agencies in different jurisdictions. An alcohol ignition interlock is a breath-testing device that is attached to the starter of a vehicle. These devices were designed to prevent drivers who have been drinking from starting their vehicle when their breath alcohol concentration is above a pre-set limit. When alcohol interlocks are embedded in a well-designed program, they can reduce impaired driving and repeat offences.

The importance of transitioning to greener aviation is clear, especially in the regional aviation sector. Norway, with over 40 airports, heavily relies on small to midsize aircraft for its regional network.

Green Aviation Norway, established in 2022 by key industry players and regulators, aims to coordinate and facilitate the process. The agenda for ZERAC23 includes a networking lunch and Session 3, which focuses on safe and efficient testing of technology and new concepts within a regulatory sandbox.
