How do breathalyzers work? And will there ever be a breathalyzer for marijuana? As pot has become legal in several states, law enforcement has sought a method to detect marijuana use in drivers….

Would love to see an episode on drug tests for jobs. I'm sure there's a lot to say about whether they serve any purpose and their accuracy, and I'd certainly like to know about the efficacy of the myriad things people try to fool these tests.
So let me get this straight you guys are legalizing something to illegalize it?? The breathalyzer makes zero sense at all and should be decriminalize 100% so we can all move forward in life already. I've honestly seen zero affect in zero effect in my driving let alone seen it be that bad on anyone else at that time. You either have to be a bad driver or just plain fucking stupid😂😂. Again thanks for wasting taxpayers money enough here ladies and gentlemen prove me wrong.
Mouthwash is a terrible idea, it contains alcohol. Glad this was covered. Here is an idea for a pot test: Ask them to solve the question of life. If they try to answer that without immediately demanding clarification, they are probably high.
ngl, my first thought on the book was "Oh, look, another health care 'expert' touting a particular diet based on sketchy data. Now if someone would write an evidence-based book, like, you know if Aaron …. wait…"
From what I've come across in news paper articles, a number of law enforcement agencies already know that these breathalyzers for THC are going to be. I really hope that some state/local/federal official doesn't get taken in by the "promise" of these measures and demand their usage.
It seem reasonable that we shouldn't care about anything but impairment: whether alcohol, pot, fatigue—or old age—with a combination of pupillar response and simulation, it should be pretty easy to make something robust. But this will never happen, especially because we live in a de facto gerontocracy. There is no way the elderly will legislate against their own driving rights, regardless of the danger they may pose.
Nice anecdote Aaron… I was eating breakfast, thanks for those graphics of disgusting intoxication….
Can I only (pre-)order your book on Amazon? I have no credit card, don't need one and have no use for a debt generator. I would really like to check out the book though and this isn't the first book I couldn't buy because it's solely on Amazon :'(
In Norway its illegal to drive impaired, doesn't matter if its alcohol, weed, meds, sick or just tired, I only mention it because your last comment seems to indicate that people were OK if they were found to be impaired but the police couldn't find drugs in your blood.
DUDE YOU ARE FULL OF SHIT!!!
Well sir, as of now – they are being used over the east and west coast. Maryland will be using them next month.
if there were a way for jobbers to prove they arent high at work vs a guy who smoked weed two weeks ago. id be down.

Cannabix Technologies Breathalyzer stock is about to make a huge move up…

What about hyperventilating before the test?
Great use of the poop emoji one of the best uses I ever saw really.
so… should i or should i not stop smoking my alcohol?
** levels of /impairment/ are correlated with BAC **
I'll totally order the book once pay day hits. Been trying to get back into eating well again 😀

Can you do a systematic review video on oil pulling? I saw a few studies about flora change but I'd love to see what you guys find!!!

Hi, maybe we do have some useful information on marijuana causing impaired driving specifically and other problems in general?
In 5 or so years none of this will matter because no one will drive cars when ride shares become more cost effective than car ownership 😮
Hey does anyone know the legal scenarios regarding when you can refuse breathalyzer tests?
If there were sensors in every car to automatically detect impaired driving, the information could just contact the police to pull you over.
Oh shit did I just make a really complicated problem retardedly simple. Sorry

Do a segment on Intermittent Fasting
When you are drunk, you stuff faeces in your mouth. When you are high, you stuff food in your mouth. A great deal of it too.
that was the shortest book pitch ever in a youtube video and it was affective

"Suck on my pennies", "will that help with my breathalyzer test?" "uhh sure" – how that myth probably started.

Zinc pennies are still coated with copper though
I could get the book … but are you going to possibly sign 200,000 copies? I'd like to possibly own a pre-order …
As someone who failed an impairment test with a blood alcohol level of .000 I would like to point out that they are not always accurate.
