Drunken drivers beware

Also sober drivers reaching for the cupholder, swerving to avoid a squirrel, etc.

If drivers refuse to have their blood drawn, they will be arrested and charged with DUI.

Officer at checkpoint: "How much have you had to drink tonight?"

Citizen: "I don't drink, sir."

Officer: "That's doubtful - I don't believe you. Just tell me how many?"

Citizen: "Look, I just got off work, I'm tired, and I just want to go home and sleep."

Officer: "Will you submit to a Breathalyzer?"

Citizen: "I already told you, I don't drink."

Officer: "Look, we can do this the easy way or the hard way. One last chance -- we can draw blood."

Citizen: "I didn't want to give a Breathalyzer, and now you want to draw blood? No way!"

Officer: "Okay, I gave you two chances, that's it. You are hereby charged with DUI."

Don't think this can't happen. Now, because he wasn't a "good little citizen," he's being charged with something (DUI) that's not even in line with what he's actually done (refused a Breathalyzer and blood test).

If they suspect a driver is under the influence, they'll offer an on-the-spot Breathalyzer. If drivers refuse, deputies will ask to draw blood from their arms.

implied consent was created to deal with the fact that DUI cases are winnable.

Now a person can STILL refuse the blood draw and have a one year suspension, however they have to show the integrity of the testing equiptment.

Perhaps if officers were doing the stopps correctly they would not have to rig the rules.

Think of the possibilities - Check for alcohol (and any other unapproved substances) and get our mandatory lipid panel at the same time (the latter to measure the success of the fat food tax).

Thugs and vampires.

Sooner or later, people will just start shooting cops and MADD mother "observers" at these unconstitutional checkpoints.
