Houlston Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 Or just have one pint or less or two shandys. Or have a sleeping bag in the car so you can kip in the car. Does that before. Ruined the earth by using half a tank of petrol to keep the car warm in the night lol. You can still get done for doing that because you are still in charge of the car if the engine is on or keys are in the ignition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted February 21, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted February 21, 2012 They have to take you to the station to do it on their proper machine even if you do take it at the roadside and fail. The roadside equipment isn't accurate enough. So if you're like 0.01 over at the roadside, you'll probably not get done because you'll sober up a bit by the time you take the proper one. Just stall like a really bad person! Dunno why I'm giving that advice. just don't drink and drive Not that simple, if youve necked a couple before getting in your car, then you might be fine at the roadside and stalling then has the opposite effect as it starts entering your system Fair point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted February 22, 2012 Moderator Share Posted February 22, 2012 I've heard that filling your cheeks with fresh air and using that first helps. Rather than blowing straight from an exhale. Though I've yet to breathalysed. I've heard it has helped some though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The really intelligent one that I have heard was: make the last drink you have before driving a gin. Then, if stopped pop an Oxo cube into your mouth. When breathalyzed you would then breathe pure Oxo-gin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted February 22, 2012 Moderator Share Posted February 22, 2012 No, puff your cheeks with fresh air that never goes into your lungs. Gives the first part of your 'breath' zero alcohol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eames Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 Perhaps I should head to the remedial class, but I'm sat here at my desk puffing my cheeks and I can't make it work without using air from my lungs to do it...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
