SCRAM Providers in Orange County
SCRAM stands for “Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitor”.
Orange County DUI cases where a prior (or more than one prior – that is, a second DUI or higher) is alleged often have the option of wearing a SCRAM ankle bracelet in exchange for lower jail time. Orange County Judges like SCRAM because it ensures sobriety and addresses underlying issues better than jail does. This is a list of SCRAM Providers in Orange County.
The SCRAM device is an ankle bracelet worn by a DUI offender. The SCRAM bracelet tests the DUI offender’s sweat for alcohol about once per hour, silently. The SCRAM device then wirelessly transmits the results at least once per day via the SCRAM Modem.
The SCRAM device is an example of “transdermal alcohol testing.” Alcohol in the body is eliminated either through metabolism or through excretion (via the breath, urine, sweat, and saliva). About 1% of the ingested alcohol escapes the body through “insensible perspiration,” imperceptible ethanol vapor that passes through the skin as sweat.
A SCRAM bracelet/anklet detects alcohol and automatically reports it to a monitoring center.
The SCRAM device weighs about 8 ounces. SCRAM allows for continuous testing regardless of the person’s location under supervision, which increases sampling detection.
In Multiple Offense Orange County DUI Cases, a SCRAM bracelet can help by creating an alternative to jail time, by promising sobriety, and using the SCRAM device to ensure sobriety is complied with.
