Author: Radomskyi Maksym VasyliovychHow to cheat breathalyzer? This question does not lose its relevance and popularity. Drivers hope for many ways, which, in their opinion, should reduce the cherished ppm. But will their aspirations be in vain? Let's figure it out.
The effect of alcohol
Once in the human body, alcohol acts as follows:
- Drunk alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream;
- With the blood flow enters the pulmonary alveoli, where it evaporates;
- With exhaled carbon dioxide, its vapors are evacuated to the external environment;
- The more ethyl alcohol is drunk, the higher the readings of the smart device.
Experiment
Here are the experimental data:
- Two subjects were given to drink 50 gr. at the same time. 40% vodka.
- After one hour, the breathalyzer recorded 0.3 and 0.5 ppm of alcohol.
Chewing gum, coffee beans, bay leaf, ammonia inside, tobacco smoke, seeds, activated charcoal - did not bring the desired result.
The subjects tried to “breathe”. Very frequent, deep, forced breathing reduced the numbers on the device screen by 0.1 ppm. If the driver drank little, then this can help in some cases. But the trouble is that this method cannot be used imperceptibly. The policeman will definitely pay attention to such strange respiratory movements.
Effect on alcohol
Significantly slows down the absorption of alcohol:
- Plentiful food;
- Drinking non-carbonated water or 50 gr. sunflower oil;
- Hard physical labor.
It is clear that they will not come to zero per mille, but their number will decrease.
If the breathalyzer does not have a mouthpiece, which is extremely rare, then you can try to keep it away from your mouth and exhale less actively. Then there is a mixing of exhaled and ambient air, which reduces the concentration of ethyl vapor.
Alcohol and the law
The police officer has the right to send for an additional medical examination. Then the narcologist in a specialized medical institution will personally conduct generally recognized tests that will reliably show the true degree of intoxication. The conclusion made is not subject to revision or doubt. It will become an argument in any lawsuit in any country.
Conclusion
The most reliable and reliable option for legal sobriety is not to drive after drinking alcohol. This can save you, your car, and other road users. Be scrupulous in this matter and avoid trouble.
