When other countries (notably Europe) use roadside ‘Breathalyzer’ test machines? It seems a high-functioning drunk could get away with DUI in the US, when they wouldn’t in France or the UK?
In: Other
In the US, field sobriety tests are used as a preliminary screening to indicate possible intoxication. They’re not as accurate as breathalyzers, but they can help officers determine whether further testing is warranted. Breathalyzers, on the other hand, provide a more precise blood alcohol concentration (BAC) reading but may not be available or practical in all situations.
