Most people get this wrong 👇

That “breathalyzer” on the side of the road?
It’s NOT the same as the one at the station.

In Rhode Island, there’s a big legal difference between a roadside breath test and the one at the station, and it can impact your case.

Two different tests.
Two very different consequences.
