    I do. It doesn’t make any sounds or have any lights. Thing you’re describing sounds more like a similar device I know people busted with DUIs end up with forced to being used. It’s beeping because it wants them to blow again since it’s detecting them driving like shit and thinks they’re drunk.

      I had one and it definitely beeped if the light turned yellow and I stopped rather than blowing through a red light. It was a frustrating experience because it would happen even when driving a safe speed. You don’t get dinged unless you have too many of them, but I suspect in a busy city with stop and go traffic it could be tough. I did end up. With the maximum discount though so it didn’t end up being a big deal.

        I’m curious, was it beeping because of somewhat harder breaking?

          Yes. Not like I was slamming on my brakes, but it was a harder brake than normal. It was pretty sensitive imo, but think they are trying to detect people that are driving too closely to the person in front of them.
