Earlier this week, Dr. Alessandro Ferrero left this thoughtful comment on my article about the Sampling Problem in Breath Alcohol:
I reached out to talk with Dr. Ferrero and Dr. Veronica Scotti, coauthors of the book Forensic Metrology to talk about how the science of measurement relates to alcohol testing and interpretation.
We talked about the following:

Differences in the legal system in Italy vs the US
How do the courts in Italy deal with uncertainty in alcohol in breath and blood?
What is it like explaining uncertainty in the courtroom in Italy?
Communicating scientific principles to judges
The importance of traceability
Blood vs breath analysis
