Wisner
& Wisner, LLP,
owns and maintains an operable and calibrated BAC Datamaster™
manufactured by the National Patent Analytical Systems,
Inc.
This breath testing device is used by more law enforcement
officials than any other in New York. In Rochester,
NY, the BAC Datamaster™ is the device of choice used
by the Rochester Police Department, the Monroe County Sheriff
as well as most town and village law enforcement agencies.
The
August 2002 acquisition placed Wisner & Wisner,
LLP, as the first
law firm in New York State to own a BAC Datamaster™.
Wisner
& Wisner, LLP also owns
a RepCo Simulator. This simulator is the same used
by most law enforcement agencies in New York State to self
check the BAC Datamaster to see if it is within acceptable
tolerances.
In
addition, Wisner & Wisner, LLP
maintains a library of maintenance, calibration and repair
records on four hundred twenty two breath testing
instruments, including the BAC Datamaster™, used in
New York State. Our attorneys have been able to use
this library to anticipate and spot problems with certain
units used by law enforcement.
Todd
J.W. Wisner is also factory trained in the Supervisor Program
of the BAC Datamaster™ by the manufacturer.
Mr. Wisner was the first New York lawyer to be
Certified in the Science of Evidential Breath Alcohol Testing
and as a Breath Test Operator of the BAC Datamaster™
in Mansfield, OH, at National Patent Analytical Systems.
Owning
a BAC Datamaster™ has allowed the firm to examine
the device, check "verification" of the unit's
"calibration" and simulate field use. It
has also allowed the Wisner & Wisner, LLP,
to test subjects under circumstances similar to that in
the field by law enforcement.

Wisner
& Wisner, LLP
has
also acquired parts of the BAC Datamaster to examine, test
and compare with the parts of a functioning BAC Datamaster.
Owning
a BAC Datamaster has
allowed the firm to conduct independent testing with live
subjects with varying degrees of alcohol consumption.
We have been able to test the accuracy of the unit when
compared with other breath testing devices. Further,
the firm has been able to test the accuracy of the device
when other factors are introduced to the equation other
than alcohol.

Wisner
& Wisner, LLP, also owns
a Alco-Sensor IV manufactured by Intoximeters, Inc.
The Alco-Sensor is the breath screening device of choice
by New York State law enforcement. Police use the
Alco-Sensor as a screening device to ascertain if a motorist
has been drinking but is not evidentiary. This device is
widely used by New York police because, unlike the BAC Datamaster,
it is hand held and portable. Our particular model
is used in California for evidentiary purposes.
Wisner
& Wisner, LLP, holds
the distinction of being one of two New York law firms to
have an Alco-Sensor.
