What it does
Under current law, a person who operates a motor vehicle in a manner that gives reasonable grounds to believe that the person is operating while intoxicated (OWI) is deemed to have given consent to the withdrawal of specimens of the person’s blood, breath, or urine and to a chemical test of the specimens to determine the alcohol concentration or presence of a controlled substance or other drugs. The department of transportation (DOT) is required to revoke the driver’s license of a person if the results of a test indicate an OWI violation or if the person refuses to provide a specimen for testing.
