That feels like a massive overreach to me.

Where I am (Victoria, Australia) this is how it always is. It's been a common thing as far back as I can remember. When you get pulled over you'll be asked for your license and given a breathalyser test. Recently I think they've started doing drug tests too, although I'm not sure if they do that for everyone like breathos, or just some people.

Have they not switched to paper for those disposable mouthpieces that go on the breathalyzer?

Because that would be just so hilariously typical of our "fight" against climate change.
