    Since no one’s answered the question, yes it would show up on a test.

      As long as it doesn’t kill you because you are bypassing your liver and stomach that way and it’d be super easy to overdo it.

        It would show up on a breathalyzer. It doesn’t measure what you drank, but rather what’s in your blood.

            The breathalyzer works because you’re body tries to remove some of the alcohol through your lungs, not because of leftover traces from the physical act of drinking. That’s why none of the various things people stuff in their mouth to try to fool the breathalyzer work.

            That’s… I don’t know where you got that from… Probation doesn’t take blood samples. You pee in a cup. Trust me. I got 4 months left… And refusing a breathalyzer is so that you avoid blowing way to high on a DUI charge. If your twice the limit there’s a stiffer penalty. By not blowing, you lose your license for a year automatically, at least in the state of Florida, but you can avoid fucking yourself by not submitting to a breathalyzer.

                Well, no… They don’t do blood samples when you get pulled over here for DUI either. If your in an accident and can’t submit a breathalyzer they will draw blood at a hospital. You either take the breathalyzer or you don’t. If you fail the field sobriety test and refuse the breathalyzer, it’s a DUI, automatic one year driving suspension. Mandatory minimum. And, not to be an ass, but if you could refrain from he whole “Fuck the USA” thing, it would be appreciated. It didn’t add to the context of an intelligent conversation and It’s not our fault the POTUS is an aggravating, shit-pot stirring old fuck… I mean, it kind of is… I voted, but not for that prick. Thanks.

        The breathalyzer tests the alcohol in the breath. An analyzer tests it…well I’ll let you figure that out.
