abstract="Isopropanol intoxication, whether accidental or intentional, is not unusual. Alcoholics have long-resorted to isopropanol because of its availability and cost. The incidence of isopropanol intoxication with driving, however, has been reported only a few times in the literature. A unique case is reported where an individual intentionally drank isopropanol and was involved in a minor traffic incident. The individual's impairment was not consistent with a preliminary breath test of 0.062%. The officer proceeded to an evidential breath test, but received an &quot;interferent-detected&quot; result, and then requested a drug recognition expert (DRE). A full DRE evaluation was performed, indicating central nervous system depressants, marijuana, and narcotic analgesics. Laboratory analysis included chromatographic testing for volatiles and an immunoassay drug screen. <br><br>RESULTS were positive for isopropanol and acetone; no other compounds were detected. This case report provides a unique comprehensive evaluation of a driver under the influence of isopropanol.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
