Taking an alcohol test is not the easiest thing in the world to do. Sure, undergoing the process itself is easy, but it can be pretty nerve-wracking if you have a serious reason why you need the alcohol test in the first. Alcohol tests are done for a variety of reasons. One reason to take the test is if you are ordered by a court to do so, particularly in cases of child custody. You have to prove that you are a fit parent, and that you have been sober for a while, if you have a history of abusing alcohol. Going through child custody proceedings coupled with the pressure of taking–and passing–the alcohol test is enough to make one a bit nervous, to say the least.
