Many people assume that when a DUI suspect fails a breathalyzer test that there will be an open and shut case leading to a conviction. But, this isn't necessarily the case. Breathalyzer tests can be wrong, and claiming that a breathalyzer test has rendered a false positive is a legitimate defense in some cases.

If you are a repeater, you will lose it for 2 years and will have to pay a charge
killed by a drunk driver in the U.S. In the year of 2007 we lost 13,000 people to drunk driving in the U.S. It is a major problem for which many lives are lost. The fact is that we can fix this problem. To fix this we can simply have bartenders do breathalyzer testing on those who leave the bar.

Mr. Berlinksi admitted to being “drunk” after having more than four shots of whiskey at his girlfriend’s home. Both his breathalyzer tests resulted in 0.12. However, on the question of whether he was in “actual physical control,” evidence shows that Mr. Berlinski was asleep, with the radio and the A/C on.
