Pennsylvania DUI Lawyer Explains DUI

One of the more bizarre smartphone applications I’ve found- an app that simulates the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (HGN) test (the follow my pen with your eyes test).

As if we needed more unscientific testing methods

Friends create iPhone app to estimate blood alcohol

A drunken driving test may not seem the likeliest place to come up with a mobile phone app, but that’s when inspiration struck Nashville resident Clay Bradley.

He told The Nashville Ledger that he was following a policeman’s pen with his eyes when he thought a smartphone could be used for the same purpose.

He mentioned his idea to a couple of friends, and they came up with BreathalEyes.

The 99-cent app launched in November and can be used to measure involuntary eye movements when people are intoxicated, which is one method police use in field sobriety tests.

It’s only a matter of time before the police catch on  and add it to their arsenal of unscientific DUI testing methods.
