Before thinking that all Breathalysers are not reliable as stated in the article, ("...

1. Pricing - we all know that what you pay for is what you get. A $20.00 Breathalyser will not give you a reliable reading.

2. Calibration - Breathalysers have sensors to detect the amount of alcohol within your breath, sensors need calibration to ensure ongoing reliability (refer to AS3547)

3. When to test after your most recent drink? QLD Police Traffic Manual 7.3.2.iii states '20 mins since the subject person’s last drink of liquor or aromatic drink, use of mouth spray, or aerosol type medication before using the device on the subject person.'

4. There other factors that can affect your BAC reading including:

- how much alcohol you drink
- the time period over which you consume alcohol
- how much you weigh
- how long since you last ate
- whether you are fit
- how healthy your liver is

Aegis Safety made a donation to team "Footrot Flats" in the 2014 Variety Bash. Alicia has just sent us an email advising that a documentary is being shown on 7Mate this Saturday at 1:30pm.

From Alicia, Brendan & Peta

"Once again we cannot begin to thank you all enough for the support you showed us, and let’s face it we all had our doubts if we would make it seeing as we had 3 months to rebuild a car!! It was because of you all that gave us the drive to complete the car and never give up, we were never giving up and can’t wait to do it all over again next year!"
