Abstract
A system and method to prevent a human being from operating a motor vehicle if the human being is intoxicated or under the effects of particular hallucinating drugs that uses a galvanic detector that can measure epidermal (skin) elements of a human being such as alcohol content, sweat and temperature continuously in conjunction with circuitry and logic circuits that connect to the vehicle's ignition system that only allow the vehicle to be operated when certain temperature sensing conditions are met and certain conditions requiring no alcohol are met otherwise the vehicle will be turned off. In an alternate embodiment, a glove could be used for epidermal measurements that is also connected to the sensing circuits.
