South Korea's Supreme Court Restricts Use of Breathalyzer Evidence

Original: Supreme Court Rules BAC Evidence Without Mouthwash Illegal

South Korea's Supreme Court has ruled that blood alcohol concentration evidence obtained without a mouthwash or rinse beforehand is illegal, according to a report by Chosun Ilbo. The decision means breath-test results could be thrown out in drunk driving cases if proper procedures were not followed, prompting discussion among lawyers and drivers about how police should conduct sobriety checks going forward.

Why now: The ruling changes how police can gather drunk driving evidence, affecting past and future DUI cases.
