However, everyday reality tells that these efforts is inferior to the expected results. Unfortunately, this regrettable fact has been confirmed by a series of 616 blood-alcohol level measurements performed in our laboratory, according to the prescriptions of security forces and magistrates, in relation to High way Code.
