Cariot's New White Paper on Alcohol Checks

Cariot, a Tokyo-based company specializing in vehicle management systems, has unveiled a white paper titled "Starting with Cariot: Compliance for Alcohol Check Mandates". This document serves as a comprehensive guide for businesses navigating the new regulations pertaining to alcohol checks for their drivers. With the recent amendments to the Road Traffic Law, companies with a fleet of white-number vehicles now face mandatory alcohol checks. As of December 1, 2023, use of alcohol detection devices becomes mandatory for confirmed checks.

As we step into 2026, businesses are starting to experience several operational challenges that have emerged in the wake of these regulations. Many safety managers have voiced concerns regarding the burdens of late-night and early-morning checks, difficulties in verifying remote employees, and the complexities of managing records through paper or Excel formats. Hence, this white paper addresses these real-world challenges and offers solutions through Cariot’s platform.
