DUI Breath Test

Many police agencies in Arizona continue to use breath testing devices to measure blood alcohol content level. The most popular machine in Arizona is the Intoxilyzer 8000. This is a machine that attempts to measure the alcohol level based on the particles of alcohol detected in the breath. There are many limitations on breath testing devices: partition ratios, mouth alcohol, what you have eat, prior dental work, breathing patterns and general help. Many of these issues can affect the liability of breath testing. It's important that if you are charged with a DUI where a breath testing machine was used in your case, it's important that you speak with to a qualified criminal defense attorney to have the test reviewed to determine whether or not there are any potential error sources and to determine whether or not the liability test can be called into question. Breath testing cases are complicated and it's important that you seek the advice and counsel of a competent and qualified criminal defense attorney.
