Jerry Hrechka I am not in any way excusing drunk driving - they should be severely punished. But under certain circumstances a diabetic will show a false positive on a breathalyzer test. I know it happened to me.
Only a blood test can prove the "Ketone Acidtosis" that the person is expieriencing. That's why I'm very leery about trusting breathalyzer tests and tend to doubt the validity of the results.
By the way I'm a Phillies fan.
