  • A woman driver is breathalysed at the roadside by an officer from the City of London Police. During a night shift in the streets near Liverpool Street Station, the lady blows into the device until the officer tells her to stop, having supplied sufficient breath that can be measured for alcohol in milligrams of Oxygen. When the user exhales into the breathalyzer, any ethanol present in their breath is oxidized to acetic acid at the anode. The overall reaction is the oxidation of ethanol to acetic acid and water. The electrical current produced by this reaction is measured, processed, and displayed as an approximation of overall blood alcohol content by the breathalyser. The first practical roadside breath-testing device intended for use by the police was the drunkometer. The drunkometer was developed by Professor Harger in 1938.

  • The view from the back during a caleche carriage ride through a street in Luxor, Nile Valley, Egypt. Tourists walking along any part of Luxor are pestered by Calesh owners who follow the visitor until they climb aboard. They are dependent of tourist traffic and therefore victims of the downturn. According to the country's Ministry of Tourism, European visitors to Egypt is down by up to 80% in 2016 from the suspension of flights after the downing of the Russian airliner in Oct 2015. Despite the efforts of local animal charities, and although the position has improved in recent years and is still improving, few of the horses appear to be well looked after. The drivers tend to gallop the horses and use their whips unnecessarily and rarely do you see a horse in the shade or drinking.
