According to statistics from the Police Administration, the number of drunk driving cases has been decreasing nationwide for the past two years since the new drunk driving law was implemented; however, Taipei City and New Taipei City have seen an increase in cases. The majority of violators in Taipei City are aged 18 to 30, while in New Taipei City, the age group with the most violations is 40 to 50. Despite the overall decrease in drunk driving cases in the country, Taipei and New Taipei City have experienced an increase, especially among younger individuals. On the other hand, the age group of drunk drivers in Taoyuan, Taichung, Tainan, and Kaohsiung tends to be older. Police attribute the increase in cases to a return to normal social activities after COVID-19 lockdowns.
