Absolutely. The results of breath tests are not exact. Any time the government tries to estimate how much alcohol is present in a breath sample you provide, the results will not be 100% accurate. You need to hire an DUI attorney who has successfully challenged the result of breath alcohol estimates/tests. The results of the test can vary anywhere from 5-9% just based on the machine that is used to test you. This does not include factoring in the physiological/biological differences inherent in the test subjects. I would highly recommend you contact an experienced DUI attorney in Michigan for a free consultation.
