The logistics of that got me thinking if there was perhaps instrumentation errors that led to that BAC number. It seems implausible, and not data-centric enough to hang your hat on in a blog post like this.

If the calibration error isn't linear and someone shows up blowing a high number you could get a medically insane number on the screen.
