Drink driving law is an area of criminal practice requiring not only a detailed knowledge of statutory provisions and voluminous case law but also an ability to understand and deal with scientific evidence produced by the breath testing devices employed by the police. This book sets out and analyzes the relevant statutory provisions in detail, with special emphasis on how these provisions have been interpreted by the judiciary. "Drink Driving Law and Practice" also explains in clear language how samples are analyzed. The technology involved in the Lion Intoximeter and the Camic device is explored, as is the medical effect of alcohol on the human body (in sections contributed by scientific writers). Important cases on duplicity and the choice of body fluid samples are included, as are the provisions of the "Road Traffic Act 1991", which came into force on July 1992. the Act introduced a new offence of causing death by careless driving while unfit through drink, and altered the so-called "totting up" provisions.
