This way you err on a broken breathalyzer and someone losing their car for 3 days and out some cash.

Yeah, yeah, slippery slope, got it. Id still rather have people flirting with driving drunk off the road thanks.
You do have to admit though with your results it seems almost impossible to have some of the BAC recording that drunks have.

I am thinking of say Justin Blackmon who had a .24 (?) BAC reading and, athough it isn't linear, it would seem he must have been dead to drink that much to get a reading so high based on your results.

I guess there might be a point when you have X many drinks your BAC jumps up but to get to that level it seems really unlikely based on your numbers.
