READ THE RESULTS
The result is an estimate of the subject’s BAC. A breath alcohol tester
cannot tell the exact BAC in the blood of the subject. A link between
Breath Alcohol Content (BrAC) and BAC depends on many factors, such
as temperature and health conditions. Only use this device to screen for
the presence of alcohol.
Many people consider a 0.02% or greater a positive test for alcohol in
“zero tolerance” screening. Most states have 0.08% as the legal BAC
limit for tasks such as using a motor vehicle. Some states prohibit driv-
ing commercial vehicles or vessels with a 0.04% BAC or higher. Many
states prosecute people for driving under the influence at any level.
