Safest and cheapest breathalyser test - don't consume any alcohol if you are going to be driving

If you've had a drink, DON'T DRIVE. Save yourself 59p and don't get behind the wheel if you've had even one drink.

I do not think for one moment uglybeautyqueen is condonning drinking and driving as in going out for drinks and then driving home - this is more about going to a party in the evening - having way more than teh legal limit and NOT driving home ..... but then are you still over the limit 12, 18 or even 24 hours later ! That is when many get caught ! drinking 10-15 units - going home at say midnight and then driving to work teh next morning thinking all is OK because you have slept and feel OKish !!!!

So, my tuppenceworth. I work for emergency services so know the horrors of drunk driving. But I believe there is a place for these tests. Last year my family were all over for New Year. They drank throughout the day, but no one was visibly drunk. At 3pm the NEXT day I gave each of them one of those kits and they ALL failed. This was the message I wanted to convey and it worked. One of them STILL failed the following day. Now I know with confidence that none of my family, through ignorance or stupidity as opposed to malice, will ever be a drunk driver. So go on, buy them for your mates/family and show them just how long alcohol stays in your system. I think they will be as shocked as my family were and it might cause them to think twice. If it does then it's money well spent.

who's gonna check if they're over the limit?.. if that was the case then there wouldn't be so many alcohol related crimes

Just because some people don't check doesn't mean others won't!

I've got a few just in case I need them, remember you might feel okay to drive but that doesn't mean you are.

Even the day after, the driver who killed my friends father was "day after the night before driver", if you know you have to drive the day after why drink the night before, I am not saying don't drink just don't get behind a wheel and drive, there are other ways to get to your destination the next day

I'm sorry to hear that, I'm not saying it's okay to drink the night before you drive. I'm just saying that it's a good idea to have these around if you do! I have got some just in case, I'm not a big drinker and don't plan on having much but these are good to have a round for your own piece of mind

Sorry, not having a dig at you in person, I just know the devastation this has on a family and I don't think these breathalysers would give true readings, so please be careful when using them
