Hi,
Of course, if you happen to be doing the speed limit in relatively heavy traffic in the innermost lane of a multi-lane highway with no shoulders, it will kill you trying to pull over. Or, if you're crossing a bridge, it will put you in the drink.
For some obscure reason, I feel troubled about having a device that is first cousin to the PC that periodically locks up or otherwise misbehaves in charge of my life. I'm probably just too cautious, after all, computers are almo . . . BRB, need to reboot my TiVo

The most likely scenario is that, like what happens with remote kill switches now, the car will pull off the road, and turn off the engine and refuse to restart for X time and / or until the breath sensing unit is re-used. Pulling off the road to avoid a drunk driver is still a very viable option and one that I personally have used successfully before.
