Is it Justified to Forcefully take Blood for Testing? »
When a police arrest any citizen for DUI then that arrested person has the right to choose that either he or she is willing to take a breath test or a blood test. Of course, there is always a third choice that is to refuse to take either.
Refusal to take test lead to bad consequences
The individual can do this, but it will lead towards bad consequences. These are that he or she will face an increased jail sentence or a longer driver’s license suspension or, in most states, that person who refuse any test has to face both these. Now the problem is that some police officers just won’t accept their refusal.
Now the Law enforcement agencies forcefully take the Test
It has been noticed that now among law enforcement agencies it has become an increasing practice to simply ignore this third choice and they forcefully take blood from the arrestee (although some this practice has been banned by some states).

What is the DUI Exception to the Constitution? »
Here on this website we will tell you about the other side of the story….
For years we had hear about the “slaughter on the nation’s highways”, we have also read tragic stories of people dying as a result of fatal hit by drunk drivers.
Pressure groups such as MADD have gained wild success in fomenting public hysteria and, and no politician could ever had such courage to oppose them, they have been pushing through ever stricter DUI laws and most harsh punishments. As a result of all these things, we are given a repeated assurance that the number of “alcohol related” traffic fatalities have continued to decrease dramatically.
