I blew a .135 the only time I've been breathalyzed. Wasn't a DUI, it was at a physical early in the morning, I had been at a going-away party the night before and was still drunk. Thought the doc wouldn't notice

I have considered getting a portable breathalyzer as a party gag, but I reconsidered. I realized that all that it would become was a device that made everybody one up eachother until we all started passing out or had to start calling ambulances. I also don't party as much as I used to. |

Ran a guy that went .497 defecient back in the 80's for another officer, and befor the test I tried to bet the cop that the guy wasn't drunk...... I swear I don't know how he did it.

Back in the late 70s, a company made a coin-operated breathalyzer for use in bars and restaurants. Test yourself before you leave and find out if you should drive or call a cab. Most bars didn't want them in their establishments out of fear that the machines would harm drink sales.
Of course, the opposite happened. Whenever I saw one, people would either ignore it altogether or use it like a video game, trying to get the highest score of the night. |

I arrested a guy for Pub Intox that was passed out near a railroad track that had a BLOOD Alcohol of .579. He was still kicking and breathing. The only reason I even had it ran was because I figured that he would die. He was discharged from hospital the next day.
The highest driving DUI I have arrested was .473 and to beat it all he was not shitty drunk. Both of these guys were career alcoholics if you haven't figured it out by now. I don't think there was a day in their adult life when they did not wake up .10 or higher. |

.18 (the cops were testing me to see if I was OK to drive my friend's truck home (he was arrested for drunk in public). I am sure I have surpassed that mark many times.

Friend who's a retired cop had a customer blow mid .40's (and sounded sober as a judge)
Worst I've ever seen in print was a guy in Kittanning who tested .771 and lived |

Wholeheartedly agree. I also have never had the "pleasure" of being pulled over for drunk driving and I don't feel that driving while intoxicated earns you bragging rights. I have lost too many friends because of drunk driving. |

I blew a no color change on the street .
I picked up friends from a bar who were loaded. At a god damn checkpoint, a cop had some sort of sniffing flashligh that he shoved in the car to determine if there was alcohol in the car. I refused to take the field sobriety test because I dance for no one. However, I did blow through a glass capsule thing in which an indicator would turn colors if you were intoxicated. After which, I got an apology and a thank you for picking up my friends |

I delt with an old drunk that I had taken to the hospital that was still walking and taking. He had a .529 BAC. Staff at the hospital told me later that he had been in earlier in the week and was higher then.

I dont understand all the bragging going on here. If you have EVER driven drunk you are a world class asshole and in my book deserve to be shot on the spot. How selfish can you be to endanger the lives of innocent people around you because you are either too stupid or too cheap to call a taxi-cab. Really what a bunch of morons. And for the record I've been drunk a million times and I'm still not stupid enough to get behind the wheel of a car. |

Wow, So, is it any better to have 1 beer and drive, 2??? 1 beer away from being drunk? I'm sure you've never had a buzz and driven before. I used to drive drunk, but I gave it up 5 years ago when I met my (now) wife. Am I proud of it, no not one bit, and I haven't done it in a number of years. Let he without sin cast the first stone. Maybe in my book you deserve to be shot on the spot for being a 'holier than thou' ass! |

Never because I don't drink, therefore I don't drink and drive. I'm not boasting or trying to say I'm better than anyone here, but drunk driving is one thing that really pisses me off.

Always drunk then this can happen I see it a lot with older men that get frunk 24/7/365 In a few of the cases I dont belive they were hindered cause there tolerance was so high. But im no expert. |

Being arrested for drunk driving isn't the only way to get your breath tested. They make portable ones now that anyone can buy. |
