And now, if you don't submit to the breathalyzer the officer can draw your blood or take you somewhere to have your blood drawn for a blood alcohol content test. You might get that extra little bit of time for the alcohol to metabolize, but the BAC is much more accurate than the breathalyzer.TDDude wrote: This is exactly correct. The .08 mark is just a given standard and blowing it really makes your case easy to prosecute. This is why lawyers will always advise that you "don't blow" when stopped. If you blow and register that mark, you're going for a ride and you won't be able to win in court. Other than that, if the officer thinks that you are "off" for any reason, he can hook you up and you're in for a very long day.

Re: Question - Safe method of transporting weapon
I have had one beer with my dinner on several occasions on not worried about it. In your circumstance I would either keep it concealed and milk that one beer, not go at all, or leave my gun at home that day in anticipation of going. Going out with "the guys" for happy hour is a little different than just having dinner with the family.
