France's cabinet is to hear a proposal to make breathalysers mandatory at late-night clubs and cafes from this summer.
The ecology and health ministers are due jointly to present a draft decree that applies to all such establishments remaining open until 0200.
Some 350 cafes and bars in western France have already run trials, Ecology Minister Jean-Louis Borloo said.
"Health Minister Roselyne Bachelot and I will present a decree to make electronic breathalyser tests obligatory in drinking establishments open until 0200 so that everyone can check their level, their condition upon leaving," Mr Borloo said on the France 2 television channel. "I hope that by this summer, it will be obligatory in all such places."
