"What other solution do you have to protect the innocent who are just driving home with their families?"

The roadside sobriety test with probable cause that leads to a breathalyzer, then arrest is fine. Refusal to take the test after probable cause is provided causes a 3year min. suspension, as per above on the thread. There's no reason whatsoever to draw blood, unless the evidence otherwise is overwhelming.

Problem is, this is not enforced.

So does that mean you lose your license for three years if you refuse the breathalyzer? Does the case go to court at all? Or just automatic?
