bloodtest
New Member
I was pulled over around 7am New Years day. The reason given to me was that they were carrying out random stops. The officer asked if I had anything to drink to which I replied 'yes'. I failed the breathalyzer test and was brought to the police station to be tested again. They tested me at 8.10am and I blew 40 and 41. I was told that since I blew 41 I would have the option to give a blood test. The blood test was taken about 1-2 hours later between which time I used the toilet once.
They say it will take up to 6 weeks for the results to come back and I am very worried as I have only had my licence since June. Is there any reason that a blood test would show a higher reading than that of the breathalyzer test and therefore put me over the limit?
