Often not a good idea ... a breathalyzer at a party becomes a really cool contest ... who can get the highest reading in the shortest amount of time ...

Also, if you test someone at the site, they are below your state limit ... they drive and through the magic of metabolism their BAL goes UP ... they get popped for DUI and they blame you for the rest of their lives.

They probably think you're a terrible preachy asshole (I don't actually conceive of you this way) since you stopped drinking anyway. The Breathalyzer would only make that worse.
