Can a pedestrian be required to take a breathalyser test?

Correct answer

Yes, when involved in an accident or having committed an offence under the Traffic Act.

Yes, when involved in a traffic accident or having committed an offence under Article 14 of the Traffic Act. Being a possible person responsible for an accident is a valid case, but not the only one. This does not place every pedestrian under preventive checks for drivers merely for walking. The usual alcohol test uses exhaled breath; blood is not automatically drawn.
