Jacob didn't pass them the confirmatory breathalyzer test showed zero alcohol level proved that he had not drunk that night so his ability to properly operate the car was most likely impaired by drugs Jacob was arrested for OWI while causing injury right now okay up and then we got some testing and some paperwork and then if all goes cooperatively you might be able to go home okay okay I gotta put you in cops all right one more time we probably aren't going to hit that anymore but this won't take too long okay according to Wisconsin statute section 346.63 subsection 2. it is unlawful for any
