No, I would bypass the interlock to be rebellious.

I would bypass it for two reasons. First, so that I don't have to be bothered by it. Second, as a form of rebellion. I don't know why you can't figure that out.

Yeah, it took me all of three seconds to think of a way to bypass it. It took me more time to type the post.

BTW, I'd love to find a loophole in the no smoking in restaurants/bars law...and I don't smoke.

I am with you here. That is why I found it interesting that you need to "hum" to keep from cheating it or whatever. All you need is a little bass being put out and that should cause enough vibrations to fool it right? And I don't drink/drive either It is the same as someone thinking on how to rob a bank...doesn't mean they are actually going to do it.

and some bar did find a loophole on the smoking ban in another state. They staged a "theatre night" where all of the customers were "actors" because you are allowed to smoke in a theatrical presentation or something like that.

I forget where it was/the exact details

This is just another way for the government to control its citizens. I get tired of government trying to protect me from myself.

I have a girlfriend in Philly. Her fiancee has a "blow and go" in the car. Apparently, you also need to suck at the end of the blow. I don't think a machine could do that.

This would really suck if I had a glass or three of wine and decided to drive to my mailbox instead of walk. :lazy: I wouldn't even be on a public road.

Dude I totally disagree with your thought pattern here. if you were so willing to override the system with compressed air etc!!! Why not download the code for the RS port/eithernet port and get smashed and drive


I have had one of the said devices voluntary installed on one of my vehicles.
The DL test asked about 2o% of questions about when you are inpaired to drive. .05? .08? .10? how does anyone know if they are .05 or greater????


Yes I think a law mandaiting sampleing machines is ridiculous. Next it will be you can buy a gun but" we do not sell bullets to fit it. go down the alley and beside the guy that fixes breathalysers is a guy that has bullets"


hey they are tax free

I guess you're not an engineer. Design an interlock and I'll bypass it.

Just when I thought I heard it all.
