After you have provided samples of your breath for testing, you have the right, at your own expense, to have a person or physician of your own selection take independent samples of your breath, blood, or urine for independent testing.

Emily could face a DWI charge or refusal violation for failing to fully cooperate with testing, vehicle impoundment, license suspension, fines, and installation of an ignition interlock device. Even working for the police might not save her. Hey everyone, what do you think about this situation? If you enjoyed the video, don't forget to like, subscribe, and support our fundraiser.
