“Here in Washington State a refusal to perform routine roadside tests or submit to a blood test automatically causes your drivers license to be suspended for six months.”
I’d like to see that RCW. Roadside tests are always voluntary. Implied consent for Breathalyzer only kicks in after you’ve been arrested. Don’t make the cop’s job easier by volunteering anything.
I was actually including breathalyzer as a roadside test. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of anyone refusing to do the physical tests, although I suppose some have. Sorry for the confusion. Refusal to take either a breath or blood test will get a six-month suspension.
