Our "BAT"s, Breath Alcohol Technicians, are certified to follow DOT regulations, which are the
most stringent in the industry, as well as the manufacturer's proper usage of breath alcohol
testing equipment. A donor simply breaths into the breath testing device, and their level of
breath alcohol is immediately determined and the results printed. Each machine is maintained
with the highest standards for accuracy. The evidentiary breath testing equipment has an
accuracy rate near 100% and uses the same methodology used by law enforcement agencies.
