Below find some interesting facts about food and intoxication:
In a driver that has not eaten anything all day, approximately 20% to 25% of the consumed alcoholic beverage is absorbed from the stomach, while 75% to 80% is absorbed from the small intestine. Therefore, in such drivers, their breathalyzer results will be the highest after 0.5 to 2.0 hours following the drinking of alcoholic beverages. Compare and contrast this with non-fasting drivers, whose highest breathalyzer would theoretically register after 1.0 to 6.0 hours. Therefore, food in the stomach, and the timing of the breathalyzer can make a big difference in a DUI case.
In addition, there are numerous other reasons why a breathalyzer gives inaccurate results. If you are facing a Chamblee or Doraville area DUI case, call DUI attorney Richard Lawson.
