Use of Vehicle Breathalyzers in the Reduction of DUI Deaths

摘要

For many years, there was a challenge of using detecting drivers who operated vehicles under the influence of alcohol. Getting tools that were accurate for measuring results was a major challenge. However, the innovation of Vehicle Breathalyzers assisted in boosting the reduction of Driving Under the influence [DUI] of alcohol or drug deaths. The existent errors in examining the DUI for drivers were resolved through the invention of the Breathalyzer whose capability to measure alcohol amounts has always helped to determine consuming alcohol amongst individuals. The Breathalyzer is one of the essential devices that identify whether a person being examined is drunk legal. This is because it provides the proportion of alcohol vapors that are exhaled into the air with a proportion that illustrates the alcohol content in the blood. The current Breathalyzer ignition systems usually require a driver to breathe into the device before starting the vehicle. If the driver alcohol content is above 0.08 percent blood concentration of alcohol, the driver can receive penalties according to the law. Studies have shown that the use of Breathalyzer has grown by a rate of 15 percent per year since their development. The Breathalyzer technology includes data systems which provide a recording of both driver and vehicle responses and rapid systems for monitoring the alcohol state in the driver. This paper provides a description of how these technologies can be applied by drivers to enhance safety in driving. This research will bring insight into how accidents are associated with drunk-driving crimes. It contributes also to the researchers who are looking for a way to reduce road accidents. Through the data collection, analysis, results, and findings, we will get the realization that using a breathalyzer to test drivers, especially at night will help police to identify drivers who have committed the crime easily.
