We are going to start by reviewing the Al6000 digital breathalyzer which is one of the most popular digital breathalyzers in UK so if you have a review of the Al6000 breathalyser get ready as we will be posting the review over next couple of days once we have well and truly put it through its paces. To start with we are taking it to a local pub tonight.
The drink driving limits across europe vary from country to country with most being lower than here in the UK. British drivers travelling abroad should be aware of this as the UK limit at 0.08% BAC ( 80mg /100ml or 0.8 g/l ) is significantly higher than most of our European neighbours, and it would be very easy to find yourself unknowingly breaking the law when abroad.
Our closest neighbours France, Belgium & Ireland have levels of 0.05% BAC. Ireland’s limits changed from 0.08% BAC to 0.05% BAC last Autumn 2011, as research from other European countries has shown significant reduction in road trafiic accidents in which alcohol was a factor following a reduced limit. Ireland has also introduced a zero tolerance for learner drivers. Recently France has become much more pro-active, and has introduced a law requireing drivers to carry self breathalyzer kits which will come into effect on 1st July 2012.
Some countries, Estonia, Hungary, Slovakia, in fact operate a zero tolerance to drink driving for all drivers. The levels are constantly being changed across Europe, and the trend is downward. If you are driving abroad it is important to check the current levels for the county that you are visiting at the time you are visiting, and to exercise extreme caution as the penalties also vary from country to country.
The safest thing is to abstain completely from drinking alcohol when driving, however many drivers are unaware that they may still be over the limit the morning after consuming alcohol, and this is more likely to be the case in countries where the limts are lower.
In some countries novice drivers (less than 2-3 years since they passed their driving test) are set lower limits than more experienced drivers.
Most breathalyzer kits and digital breathalysers sold in UK display in % BAC
So this means that:
0.2 g/l is same as 0.02 %BAC
0.5 g/l is same as 0.05 %BAC
0.8 g/l is same as 0.08 %BAC
The limts are changing constantly so check the details for the country that you are visiting at the time you are visiting.

This is a common question and one that can cause a lot of confusion as different models of breathalyzer can display different units of measure. Valuebreathalysers www.valuebreathalysers.co.uk commonly receive questions regarding this, and today was no exception.
Alcohol Breathalyzer Limits UK
Here are the current UK alcohol breathalyzer limits for drivers on a normal driving license, that you may often see quoted-they all refer to the same amount of alcohol in the blood stream it is just the unit of measure that is different. The different ways that this is displayed can cause confusion.
The most common measurement is the BAC or blood alcohol concentration. Some models of breathalyzer display in BRAC or breath alcohol concentration but this is far less common now.
Blood Alcohol Concentrations (BAC) – 80 milligrammes of alcohol in 100 millilitres, 80mg/ml, 080 on mg/100ml display or 0.08 %BAC, 0.8 Promille
Breath Alcohol Concentrations (BrAC) – 35 microgrammes of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath
If you are purchasing a breathalyzer it is important to know the unit of measure that that the breathalyzer diplays in so that you interpret the readings correctly.

The UK’s limits are much higher than most other EU countries and there are many who believe that they should be brought down to a lower level for example 0.05%, which is the limit in most EU countries. for a driver on a normal driving license. Some countries operate even lower limts of 0.02 % BAC or even 0. I think it will only be a matter of time before the UK follows suit, and come into line with most of Europe with a 0.05% limit. Most drivers are impaired by even small amounts of alcohol in their blood stream and the effect does vary considerably from driver to driver. Generally the higher the levels of alcohol , the greater the impairment.

The DSW-765 panel comes from one of the worlds leading manufacturers of saliva drug testing kits, and has full quality certification including CE, IVDD, TUV etc.
Packs contain 20 full saliva drug tests, each individually foil wrapped, 20 saliva collection swabs and 20 collection and transfer tubes, together with an easy to follow instruction and clinical data sheet. The 20 test pack retails for between £110 and £125 plus VAT, making it one of the most cost effective 6 drug saliva tests available currently in UK. However the performance is anything but cheap. The membranes give clear easy to read results, tests take a maximum of 10 minutes to complete, and individual results are given for each of the 6 drug groups included on the test.
But its the combination which makes it a first choice for workplace drug screening & testing:
Cannabis
Cocaine
Amphetamine
Methamphetamine
Bezodiazepine
Opiate
Covering a full range of common recreational drugs, (the Methamphetamine test will detect both crystal ice but also most MDMA Ecstacy tabs which will commonly contain MET and other Amphetamine esters) Benzodiazepines are a wide ranging group of prescription drugs including tranquilisers and sleeping pills (important to screen if employees are to undertake high HSE risk roles) and lastly Opiates which will cover for street heroin, but also prescription pain killers containing high dose codiene, which again can have a sedative effect.
