LAWYER: If Cops Say "I Smell Alcohol" - Say THIS (Simple Phrase)
"I can smell alcohol, mate." Five words at a booze bus window. Not an observation — a trained invitation, as he peels the mouthpiece from its wrapper. New South Wales runs five million of these a year, no reason needed. The test was always coming. The conversation is the trap.
But the real move follows: "How much have you had tonight?" Answer, and your words become evidence the machine never produced. R v Buddee, 2016: breath-testing powers justify no interrogation, no search. The pen is already moving.
In this video, the sentence that ends the questions, why every word works, and what to say when he pushes back. This is what small talk costs drivers who blew under the limit — and what one line buys back.

They used to ask but it's changed in the last year in my experiences
