CDOT has come up with an iPhone application that will let you know if you’ve had too much to drink.
R-U-Buzzed lets you enter your weight, the amount of alcohol you’ve had, and the time frame in which you’ve been knocking them back.
Seems like a good idea, but take the time to read the disclaimer:
This blood alcohol concentration (BAC) calculator is only an estimate and not sufficiently accurate to be considered legal evidence. The calculations are averages. Individuals may vary in their personal alcohol tolerance. Food in the stomach, medications, health and psychological conditions are influencing factors. Many establishments that serve alcohol serve portions larger than the standard drink size.
Written by a true lawyer. So, kids, while this is a fun toy, don’t think you can rely on it to get out of getting pinched by the authorities. I don’t see it as something you’re going to be able to use as a defense.
