The Alcobuddy
It’s an unfortunate reality that way too many people try to drive while inebriated, despite the fact that everyone knows what can happen when one drives drunk. Every time you turn around, it seems you’ll find another tragic story about the consequences of driving while under the influence. It affects everyone when someone gets behind the wheel of a car with alcohol in their blood.
Dozens of legal measures, educational programs, and social stigma across America have tried to slow down or stop what can truly be called an epidemic, but there doesn’t seem to be a cure in sight no matter what is done.
However, there is one simple solution that has been glaringly omitted during all of the legislation and debate and protest – the breathalyzer. Breathalyzers are standard equipment for police officers, are easy to use, and are quick and accurate. Despite this, they are not widely available to those of us who do not work in law enforcement, and, well, obviously not every drunk driver is apprehended before tragedy strikes.
Making the breathalyzer and its hard data available to the average Joe or Jane is what the Alcobuddy is all about. The Alcobuddy is a wall-mounting breathalyzer machine designed to be mounted on a barroom wall. The size of a large backpack, brightly coloured, and meant to be mounted at eye level, it’s bound to catch the attention and curiosity of many a patron, be they sober or intoxicated. Once their curiosity is piqued, the patron will find that the Alcobuddy has a digital video screen to walk them through the process of testing their blood-alcohol level. The owner of an establishment will be happy to note the autonomy of the Alcobuddy, as well; it holds six hundred of the straws needed for use – any kind of straw will do, and the alcohol sensor itself lasts for between eight hundred and eleven hundred uses, the longest lasting sensor in the business. Along with this emphasis on autonomy comes an emphasis on adaptability. The Alcobuddy accepts ones, fives, tens, twenties, and credit cards in America, but can be reprogrammed for any currency in the world. Also adding to this positively global adaptability is the wide range of available languages and the fact that the Alcobuddy has a bilingual capability.
These features, however, while numerous, are not nearly the best reason to purchase and install an Alcobuddy in your barroom or club; the most obvious and most ethical reason to install one (or two, or two dozen) is that the presence and use of a breathalyzer would make a great deterrent. I’m sure of it. Most people don’t ever feel as drunk as they are, and so the presence of cold, unfeeling numbers will set them to rights in that regard.

The Alco-Buddy User Experience
No matter how useful a vending machine product may be, it’s not always the product that attracts new customers. The user experience is also extremely important which is why Alco-Buddy, the leading manufacturer of alcohol breathalyzer vending machines has designed a product that not only looks and functions exceptionally, but also plays a major part in helping communities fight drunk driving.
The Alco-Buddy is the most advanced alcohol breathalyzer vending machine on the market and its revolutionizing how communities battle drunk driving in their area. The National Highway and Safety Administration works hard to create community-based systems to help fight drunk driving. But none of their efforts can compare to the sleek design and novelty appeal that the Alco-Buddy possesses.
The boldly colored, powder-coated exterior of the Alco-Buddy is made from 16 gauge, tamper proof, galvanized steel. It’s virtually scratch, dent, burn and water resistant! It’s high-quality design is what sets the Alco-Buddy apart from the rest.
Law enforcement agents hail the machine for being responsible for saving the lives of people in their community each year. There’s no other tool as useful and inexpensive in helping to fight drunk driving. Taking a breathalyzer test after being pulled over by police, or worse, after causing a fatal accident, is much too late. For the test to be effective, it should be taken BEFORE getting behind the wheel. Unfortunately, it’s not often that drinkers have access to a reliable test to determine whether they’re too drunk to drive.
Alco-Buddy solves that problem and provides a safe and reliable way to gauge your BAC (blood alcohol content) before it’s too late. It’s a foolproof way to determine whether you should hire a taxi to drive you home. Anyone who’s used the Alco-Buddy will tell you how incredible it is to use the machine. The high-tech credit card reader and bill accepter allows the patron to pay using almost any method of payment, ensuring a pleasing and trouble-free experience.

The Alco-Buddy – A Drunk-Driving Deterrent
It seems that every time someone turns around, there’s another story in the paper or on televised news broadcasts about some tragedy or another involving drunk driving. It’s pretty safe to say that drunk driving is kind of a huge problem in America, and there’ve been dozens of measures and debates made about preventing it and the deaths it continues to cause. Legal measures, social stigma, it seems like pretty much every trick in the book has been tried.
However, it seems that there’s one glaring omission in the crusade against drunk driving. Nobody ever talks about the availability, or, really, lack thereof, of breathalyzer testing. Sure, police officers carry breathalyzers as a matter of course, but not every drunk driver gets pulled over for reckless driving before it’s too late and someone’s been hurt or killed by the recklessness they’ve shown. It seems rather unfair that you already have to be posing a threat to just find out that your blood alcohol level is dangerously high. It’s an unfortunate truth, and a simple solution has been mainly ignored.
Until now.
The Alco-Buddy is a breathalyzer machine meant to be mounted at eye-level in a barroom. Its catchy designs draw the attention of curious passers-by, and it’s large enough (about the size of a large backpack; 18 x 12 x 6 inches) to be obvious. It is made of galvanized steel and has a digital video screen that will guide a patron through the steps to test their blood alcohol level. It’s accurate to within .01 of your actual blood alcohol level, and it takes between 800 and 1100 uses to finish off the alcohol sensor. This sensor is the longest-lasting in the business, and, coupled with the six-hundred straw capacity, this means that you don’t have to worry too much about changing the sensors and straws too often. The machine can be customized with your own ads, your own currency, and even can replace the bills-and-coins, traditional payment mechanism with a credit card slot. Easy to use switches control the accepted currency, language, and amount of payment from inside the Alco-Buddy, making the thing even more efficient and adaptable. It’s also profitable due to its relative cheapness – the alcohol sensor I mentioned before only costs one hundred dollars to be replaced, after all.
These are only some of the features of the Alco-Buddy, but it really isn’t the features that make me think of this as a worthy investment. What makes this a worthy investment is almost absurdly simple – it offers a service that nearly no one else does, and this is one of the best services one can offer, because it is a service that can save lives.

What is BAC and how can it be affected?
Blood Alcohol Content or Blood Alcohol Concentration, abbreviated BAC, is the percentage of alcohol in a person’s bloodstream. It is most commonly used as a measurement of intoxication for legal or medical purposes. The number of drinks consumed is often a poor measurement of blood alcohol content, largely because of variations in weight, sex and body fat, amongst other things. Since so many factors contribute to BAC, it’s impossible to accurately measure intoxication without a breathalyzer test.
Although the maximum legal BAC percentage obtained by a breathalyzer is 0.08% in all 50 states, it is still possible to be charged with a DUI if you are “impaired to the slightest degree.” Subtle impairments can be observed, even after only a few drinks have been consumed. For example, in the 0.03-0.05% range, behavior begins to be influenced. One may experience feelings of mild euphoria, a sense of well-being, relaxation, joyousness, talkativeness and decreased inhibition. This may be the desired effect of alcohol to some, but to others, the effects of alcohol on an individual can be greatly influenced depending on gender, weight, body composition, contents of the stomach and even the efficiency of the liver. Once a person’s BAC reaches 0.08% or higher, the undesired effects of alcohol begin to present themselves. For instance, one may begin to suffer from angriness, sadness, slurred speech and/or a poor sense of balance. Any BAC higher than 0.19% and a person is in danger of plunging into a stupor, finding it difficult to understand speech and even risking death from alcohol poisoning.
Alcohol is metabolized by the body at a rate of .015% BAC every hour. This estimates to about one beer, glass of wine or mixed drink per hour. Metabolization occurs as soon as alcohol is ingested, whereas excretion into urine begins after about 40 minutes. The more drinks consumed in an hour, the longer it takes to be removed from the body. Contrary to common belief, drinking coffee, taking a cold shower or exercising does not speed up the removal process. The only factor affecting the rate of removal in the average healthy person is the passage of time. But, metaboolization can also be compromised when alcohol is consumed in combination with certain medications such as antihistamines. Common cold and allergy medications can slow down the removal process by up to 3 times!
There are, however, ways to slow the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream. Pacing your rate of consumption over a greater period of time and eating a meal before drinking will slow the rate of absorption and also decrease the hangover effect. Mixing alcohol with non-carbonated beverages also helps slow the absorption process. Fructose is the only substance known to increase the rate of absorption. 100g dose of fructose has been shown to increase alcohol metabolism by an average of 80%!
Although the effects of alcohol vary among people that measure the same BAC, the actual content of alcohol in the bloodstream can be objectively measured using a professional breathalyzer test and therefore the results are legally useful and difficult to fight in a court of law. All this can be avoided with the use of the Alco-Buddy breathalyzer vending machine. For a small fee, an intoxicated person can simply insert a straw into the device and blow. In return, the Alco-Buddy will quickly measure your approximate BAC, allowing you to determine whether it’s safe to get behind the wheel. It’s always smart to remember that even if your BAC measures below the legal limit, it’s never wise to operate a motor vehicle if you’ve been drinking. Always designate a driver or make arrangements for a taxi ride home. It will not only save your life, but also the lives of others.
