In Texas, you can be charged with drunk driving if you were driving with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more. But what does that mean? It means that for every 210 liters of breath (or 100 milliliters of blood or 67 milliliters of urine), you had 0.08 grams of alcohol according to the Breathalyzer test. Attorney Ned Barnett owns an Intoxilyzer 5000, and he is certified to operate this breath test machine. Knowing what the police officers know gives him a huge advantage in court. He often uses his knowledge of breath tests to successfully challenge the results of the Intoxilyzer for being inaccurate.
