The Information Hidden From A Digital Alcohol Detector

In a courtroom, the information from a digital alcohol detector can be very convincing. Unlike the data from a detector that has a rather simple dial, the digital alcohol detector can provide a law enforcement officer with an exact figure. The exactness of that figure should leave no question as to the amount of alcohol in the blood of the tested individual. It might, however, leave the intoxicated driver with a few questions. The driver might wonder why his or her blood had managed to hold so much alcohol over such a short interval of time. The following article offers a possible answer.The digital alcohol detector does not promise to uncover a possible

Arguing For The Use Of The Alcohol Detector

Some workers might express outrage and disgust when they learn that their employer plans to institute use of an alcohol tester. Such workers would like to suggest that any workplace testing should be seen as an infringement on an employee’s privacy. Interestingly, the alcohol tester does little more than capitalize on a well-known fact.  Few workers would dispute the fact that one can smell the alcohol on someone’s breath, unless he or she has acted to disguise that “alcohol breath.” The alcohol in a drinker’s breath reveals just how much alcohol is in the same person’s blood stream. That’s what a screening test can

The Long Arm Of The Law Holds Onto Alcohol Testing

Two different groups of people have a particular interest in alcohol testing. One is the group composed of both law enforcement officers and the nonprofit groups that want to end the inclination to drink and drive. The second group with an interest in alcohol testing is the group of drivers who would hope to design ways for evading the reach of the long arm of the law. They would like to find ways of passing the various alcohol tests, even after they have had more than a few drinks. As shown by the following article, that second group has run up against a real “roadblock.”The introduction of mobile detection devices has assured law

The Physiology Behind The Digital Alcohol Test

In a courtroom, the information obtained from a digital alcohol test can pose a real challenge to the defense attorney. Unlike the reading from a dial, the reading from a digital alcohol test leaves the defense attorney with little reason to question the testing instrument’s lack of precision.  The precise figure provided by digital readout gives the exact amount of alcohol in the blood of the tested individual. While the judge might acknowledge the accuracy of the digital readout, the defendant might sense a seeming disparity.   The

Two Ways to See the Light on a Digital Alcohol Detector

For a beer drinker the word “light” usually refers to a type of beer. Unfortunately, too few beer drinkers realize that the operator of a digital alcohol detector can provide two further definitions for the word “light.” Those definitions relate to the reading on the detector. The digital alcohol detector normally provides its reading by producing a particular sound and light combination. That combination would indicate that the subject had a light, i.e. a low, level of alcohol in his or her blood. The resulting green light on the detector would give a green light to the person who wanted to get behind the wheel.
