READ THE RESULTS

The result is an estimate of the subject’s BAC. A breath alcohol tester

cannot determine the exact BAC in the blood of the subject. Correlation

between BrAC and BAC depends on many factors, such as temperature

and health conditions. Only use this unit 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 operating a motor vehicle. Some states prohibit

driving commercial vehicles or any vessel with a 0.04% BAC or higher.

Many states prosecute individuals for driving under the influence at any

level.
