The technical name for it is 'Alcohol Ketoacidosis' It is a condition which arises when a person has consumed so much alcohol that the fumes are literally oozing out of their pours. At check stops, the police use a device (Passive Alcohol Sensor) which senses this odor and can tell if you've been drinking, even if you refuse a 'Breathalyzer test'. |
