  Drink driving should be zero tolerance, in other words, no legal limits etc.....any alcohol on your breath and you're nicked. If you want to drink, take a taxi or walk!

  
  
  Does that include eating a slice of Tiramisu or a Brandy Snap then...?

  I'm speaking as someone with French relatives. Only in France could something such as this be even considered as a 'compulsory' device to be carried in a vehicle. It's unbelievable. As Gball states above, ZERO should be the 'limit', that would avoid any need for such personal devices. But... it's France and the French do as they please. I'd like to see a Zero figure introduced in this country. No one needs to drink. If you want to drink that's fine, I like a drink myself, but I don't 'need' to drink. If I want to go out and enjoy a drink there are a multitude of ways in which I can get back home/to my destination without the need to drive myself.
  
  As to the deal, just don't bother going to France! Nice place but full of French people. ;)

  Seems like a useful thing to have in the car. Are the alcohol limits for the UK & France the same?

  So pickled onions are out then? And what about that mouthwash you use?
  A zero limit is just plain impractical. Yes, it should be lower than it is now, but not zero.

  The blood-alcohol drink-drive limit in France is 0.5 grams/litre, a little lower than the UK limit of 0.8g, I think majority of EU countries are 0.5 grams/litre.

  If you're planning on driving in France and would like to use this, you'll need two! Otherwise, as soon as you use it it's illegal to drive because you haven't got one!
  
  I'll get one for when I go to France but never drive after a drink (or the morning after a few drinks!) so won't need to use it.
  
  As for the French; I've always found them to be one of the friendliest nations on Earth (and even when they are rude they do it with so much more style than Brits do). The phrase "Non, je suis Ecossais" helps when asked if you're English!

  Should never drink alcohol and drive...you could spill it,
  I had this tester when i drove to Paris in July...I drank a pint of Kronenbourg and half hour later it showed i had no alcohol in my system...and the Froggy police use them ...mmm

  That answer being pertinent only if you are Scottish of course. Quite how and what it 'helps' with I have no idea.

  The French, like the majority of the rest of the world hate the English. Hence, by saying you're Scottish, you may gain some favour.

  Having French family as I do, I am confident in my assertion that that is absolute cobblers.

  Typical dour scotch man and off topic. Probably been on the Buckfast

  
  
  Choice of saying "Non, je suis Ecossais" or spending £1.95; I know which one I would choose...

  I went to Paris in July and everybody was friendly to us... I had a misconception that they would hate us, but were very nice to us..

  Due to fabrication issues in France, there is currently a waiver period for these, I think lasting up to November but best to check.
  My French family said not to bother went I went over for our August holiday.
