MEMPHIS, TN- (WMC-TV) – Bar patrons in Oxford can use breathalyzers to see how much they've had to drink, but police say before patrons get behind the wheel there's something they should know.
With the swipe of a card or just a few dollars, the machines aim to let customers know when they've had too much to drink.
Bar patrons blow into the machine for the 3 to 5 seconds to get their reading, said Seth Kellum.
While many people feel the machines will get people's attention, others aren't sure people will believe them.
"I feel like you can take it somewhat seriously, but you definitely can't rely on it," said Bradley Carver.
However, others said that the machines would make them think twice.
One man said me that he had two drinks and believed he was under the legal limit. However, when he took the test his BAC registered a .12.
Ryan Walden came up with the idea for his company, Intox-Box, in college.
