    Good in theory, except the entire breathalyzer industry is terrible hardware. Intentionally. No one gives a shit about DUI drivers. So the companies have no reason to make good products.

        I mean, it’s a legal requirement for DUI drivers to be able to still drive now… doesn’t stop them from making terrible hardware. Granted, that’s a very tiny market so no real incentive for competition to drive quality either.

        It would. No one wants to admit that standardization, especially when it begins to affect the rich, leads to improvment.
