HOUSE OKS ANTI-DWI TECHNOLOGY: Back in April, I did a column on U.S. Sen. Ben Ray Luján’s support for anti-DWI technology in vehicles that stops a drunken driver before they hurt someone.
The New Mexico Democrat said his RIDE Act, like the HALT Act in the House sponsored by Reps. Debbie Dingell, D-Mich., David McKinley, R-W.Va., and Kathleen Rice, D-N.Y., “would involve a variety of drunk driving prevention systems, including driver monitoring, which can detect signs of distracted, impaired or fatigued driving, and alcohol detection, which uses sensors to determine that a driver is under the influence of alcohol, and then prevent the vehicle from moving,” according to Mothers Against Drunk Driving.
Neighbors along the Lead Ave. and Coal Ave. corridor in southeast Albuquerque say they have a unique problem: cars regularly crashing into their homes and yards. After the ART bus project reduced lanes on adjacent Central Ave., they say their residential thoroughfare is busier than ever.

Bob Anderson has lived off of Coal Ave. in Albuquerque’s Nob Hill neighborhood for about 17 years. He’s gotten used to the sound of car crashes outside his home. “We hear these big thuds here, and crashing, and the sounds of glass breaking and metal bending,” he said. “Tires will be screeching and then sometimes we’ll hear people holler and shout ‘help’ or something like that.”
