I thought it was within your rights to wait 30 mins before blowing into the breathalyzer?

I say this because if you just had a drink, then blow, it'll show a lot higher than your actual blood alcohol level is. My friend had only had a few beer, and decided to test this theory. He gargled and swished beer around in his mouth for about a minute, and then blew in the breathalyzer right after, and it read over .2. We waited 10 mins, he blew again, and it dropped wayyy down to below .08.
