Field Sobriety Test, Breathalyzer & Blood Tests

The tests used to determine blood alcohol content (BAC) are not faultless. It is not uncommon for the tests to be administered incorrectly.

If during the stop you refuse to take the Breathalyzer test, you will be charged with implied consent. While you will lose your license for a year, you will avoid many of the more significant penalties.

Breathalyzer machines must be carefully tuned, cleaned and calibrated for accuracy. The officer administering must be thoroughly trained and follow a strict set of guidelines in actually giving the test. It is highly difficult to maintain this level of accuracy. We will obtain all pertinent records and check to find inconsistencies from protocol. Any error can have the test results thrown out.

Blood tests must also be retrieved in a very specific manner and delivered in a tube that is up to certain standards.
