The next time you think of driving in an inebriated state, think again. The city’s Traffic police department has procured advanced breathalysers, which will not only provide information about the level of alcohol consumption, but will also take photos, leaving violators with no chance of using the excuse that cops have used someone else’s result.

Drunk drivers beware: The new breathalysers have a machine (in red) in which a mobile phone is present to take pictures, and a printer that will provide the entire information on the spot

These advanced breathalysers, with General Pocket Radio System (GPRS), will capture the photo of the person as they are taking the test with the help of a mobile phone attached to a printer. Cops will then get a printout of the test, along with the level of alcohol consumption and the photo, on the spot.

Traffic department has procured 35 of these advanced kits, including the breath alcohol machine, mobile phone and printer, at an investment of Rs 2 crore.
