The breathalyzer operation to private motorists and those of the public service continues to yield excellent results and though each week cases of favoritism are presented, the sub commander of Roads, Juan Manuel Villalvazo Becerra, who is in charge of the device, does not allow this kind of practice.
Constantly people come to the check point module who claim to be relatives of city and state officials, but to no avail because the test is made to all of them equally and if it comes out positive, they are detained with all and their influence they claim to have.
This weekend a former city official was arrested for refusing to submit to a breath test, who claimed to have a lot of influence with the authorities; while a professor, tried to evade arrest by saying that he is one of the teachers that certify police in their high school studies, but was arrested anyway, and to regain their freedom both had to pay a fine.
As for the number of tests performed this weekend, there were 108 of which 49 tested positive, 3 were women and 46 men; there were also 39 confiscated vehicles, a taxi, a Federal Public Service truck and a motorcycle. Of those arrested 39 paid right away to regain their immediate release, while 10 were sent to the cells of the Preventive Police.
It should be noted that the practice of BAC for drivers is becoming increasingly accepted by many citizens, who when approached by road agents show their full availability to have the test performed on them, as they have found that auto accident rates have significantly lowered in the weekends.
