She passed one breathalyzer test, but failed another that used different equipment.

What's the story here? Are the police supposed to test and retest, until they get a failing result? Sort of like how Democrats want to count the votes over and over again, until their candidate wins?

Yep. It happened to a guy I worked with. He had just left a bar and got pulled over. They gave him the breathalyzer that he passed with .07%. They made him wait 30 minutes until they had him take another one. By this time he had more alcohol in his blood and when he took he failed at .08%.
