There is growing chatter about the arrest of The Boss for DWI in New Jersey. He produced an ad for Jeep, which had a unifying message, but it is now on hold due to his ‘crime.’
Before anyone is quick to judge or convict him, it is important to understand that his blood alcohol content was .02 BAC. Yes, .02 blood alcohol content. Like it or not, drinking and driving is not illegal and the legal limit in New Jersey is .08. That is well below the legal limit.
The Boss was riding his motorcycle through a recreational park and stopped to take a few pictures with fans. One fan offered him a shot of tequila, which he took while sitting on his bike and the police watched this happen. As he drove off, the police stopped him. It is not clear but it is possible he was tested on the side of the road with a portable breath test device. This portable breath test device would show mouth alcohol, but it would be psychologically impossible for the shot to have been absorbed into the blood stream that quickly.
The video above shows how a portable breath test only measures mouth alcohol and is totally unreliable. If this is the how he was tested, his crime is having bad breath – not being intoxicated.
