No, I'm saying you and I will most likely never agree.

Face it, you're on a "nanny state" track. I'm never going to be there and I doubt you'll change.

2 questions -
1. why not outlaw the pellets too?
2. Can the pellets be fitted while you're drunk?

In fact, it'd prolly be cheaper and just as efficient to make all car keys and key slots really really tiny. That'd weed out the drunks & anyone with eyesight problems.

HHHmmm pelets to neutralize the alcohol on your breath. Uh huh. Perhaps you have some documentation to back that up. In order for that to work you'd have to have a complete catylization of the alcohol you exhale. I don't know of any substance that can do that, especially in a human mouth.

I can see an easy way out and that is a small comressor or device to supply air into the system. Hell even a very larg syringe would do it.

Do I approve of the system, nope but then I like the idea of making the offender pay for their behavior not everyone pay for others mistakes.

if there was a way to beat the breathalizer, they would not tell you, they would be sued for a billion dollars

BTW sober drivers kill 2-3 times more people than drinking drivers.

That's like saying that air travel is more dangerous now than in 1920 because more people die each year in modern times.

How many more people are on the road sober, as opposed to drunk? Per capita, drunks kill way, way more.

interesting wording there, i say "drinking drivers" and you say "drunk drivers", are you saying everyone who drinks is a "drunk"?

for the record i have never had a DUI or a accident.

No, I'm not saying that. For the purposes of this conversation, however, I thought we're discussing drivers who are drunk by legal standards... Either way, there are signficantly more 0.0% BAC drivers out there than not. If you're trying to argue that having 1-2 drinks somehow improves your driving well, that's pretty neato.

I'm sure all this thread needs is a game of semantics.

don't hold your breath RPM, if i was going to wreck it would have been in my 20's when i was young and stupid, the older i get the more carefull i get. i even drive the speed limit now (gasp).

there are old drivers and there are bold drivers , but there are no old bold drivers.

why would they be sued for proving a test can be faked?

Breathalizer measures the air exhaled form your lungs and the actual alcohol contained therin--NOT the odor of alcohol.<~~there is no getting around that,,no pill can pull the alcohall out of you and no mint or anything will cover up or mess up the test,,myths,,some people even tried crewing on moth balls to cover up the test,,lol ewwwwwwwww
