How A Breathalyzer Could Save Your Life  

Driving under the influence is lethally dangerous; for you, for other road users and for anyone who is in the car with you. This is known beyond argument. Alcohol deadens your judgment, slows your reactions, makes you less aware, and hinders your coordination, and trying to drive a car under those conditions is a recipe for disaster.

The problem is, alcohol affects different people differently. Some people may know very clearly that they are in no shape to drive. Others may feel irrational confidence that they can handle a vehicle despite being intoxicated, perhaps believing that others can’t successfully drive drunk, but they can.

This is where a Portable Breathalyzer comes in. The presence of a breathalyzer could mean the difference between thinking you might be okay to drive when you’re not, and knowing for sure that you are in no condition to drive and staying out of the car entirely. Because a portable breathalyzer is simple to use, gives a quick and accurate result, and is small enough to fit in a pocket or purse, you can test yourself at any point during the evening, even multiple times, and ensure that you don’t even get in your car until your BAC has dropped to a safe level.

This is how a Breathalyzer could save your life. The problem with driving while intoxicated is not the part where you’re intoxicated. There’s nothing wrong with enjoying a few drinks, or even more than a few if you do so responsibly. The problem comes when you try to drive, because drunk drivers often end up killing themselves, other people, or both. Testing yourself with a portable breathalyzer will do more than remind you not to get in a car. By keeping you out of the car, it’s keeping you alive.
