Safe & Responsible DrivingStandalone practice
A driver age 21 or older is arrested for operating under the influence of alcohol. The driver has no qualifying prior convictions or alcohol-program assignments and, after the required notice, refuses the requested breath test. What is the refusal suspension period?
Correct answer: 180 days.
Why
For this age-21-or-older driver with no qualifying prior convictions or program assignments, refusal of the requested breath test after arrest and notice produces a 180-day suspension. Under-21 drivers and drivers with qualifying history face different periods. This question concerns the post-arrest breath test; it does not treat every blood test or roadside preliminary test as the same procedure.
