The one they use on me is well known to set off on BREAD and is notorious for reading mouth alcohol. It also whacks out if your partition ration is not "average". It also whacks out of you have acid reflux. And for 1000 other reasons. I PASSED the field sobriety test and my driving was EXCELLENT. Dumbfuck. Do you have any idea of how these things supposedly work? The calibration procedure for this thing is RIDICULOUS and the one they used on me was one THOUSANDTH from being outside of spec. There are a number of reasons it could have gone off.

Fine :
1] Get an expert witness to put the machines known shortcomings forward on your behalf.
2] Get him to ask to see the maintenance and calibration records of the machine before and since your offence.
3] Then, when and if they baulk; start negotiating a lesser charge.
