next week.
 ,I lost my license for a yr and couldn't stand seeing my car in the driveway so I sold it within the 1st 2 mnths. Now I am getting a new car, tommorrow, which I am happy about, BUT, I will only be able to drive it next week after the machine for alcohol is installed. I will have to drive with this machine for the next 3 yrs before getting back my normal license. I think it is for the best, I am completely against drinking and driving and I have and will pay for my mistake. The problem is... now I am nervous to get back on the road. It has been over a yr since I have been behind the wheel. I have always driven clutch and my new car is automatic....I'm hoping my feet won't get confused lol Anyone else have to use the machine?.... I'm not sure what to expect.... the unknown always makes me a bit nervous. Other than that, I am looking forward to having my freedom back! I live too far from anything....I love nature and have never been able to live in town...need my privacy and peace....not even any buses here.... it hit me hard losing the freedom to go anywhere whenever... I never go far but it's freedom anyways!  Patricia, wishing the best to all xx |

That's what the machine is for.....
ya, you were in chat, the machine starts the car by me breathing into it....if it detects alcohol the car won't start.... I'll never drink and drive again! I've learned my lesson!!!! wishing you the best, Patricia xx

I know a couple of people that have had this installed in the car. I know of two people taht have died from this even though they had this installed. If when they killed thems were all the got hurt, that would be ok It. However other people have died from this. Plaes please deo not try to get around the system it may feel good for a moment then the fear of the crash and a person is dead. if you ever feel like tring it think about the consequences. of someone esle dieing.
