anyone see this video? a traffic officer from here showed how when eating a hot cross bun, the breathalyser (?) shows you to be under the influence. same is possible if you use a mouth spray or rinse with a mouthwash |

How exactly? Afaik hot cross buns don't contain alcohol, do they? Although, it's a fact that you can test positive for opioids if you've recently eaten something containing poppy seeds.

something to do with the yeast and raisins

of course you won't be arrested and if taken a few minutes later, it shows 0 again. they also say that if you had any good with alcohol or whatever to rinse your mouth with water. |

I guess the yeast could turn some of the natural sugars in the raisins into alcohol but I wouldn't have thought there'd be enough to put someone over the limit.(don't know) Wouldn't this then also be the case for any type of (yeasty)bread/sugar combo, like toast with jam on it for example.

It won't put you over the limit and the machine reading doesn't convict you anyway. Only a blood alcohol test is admissible in court.

Cant remember if its 10 or 20 minutes but the police are supposed to give you that amount of time since consumption before they breathalyse you. Same when we have to do a D+A with work
