BDifficulty 2/5

If a driver is found to have an alcohol level of 0.3 milligrams per litre in exhaled air, can they request a second test?

Correct answer

Yes, but at least 10 minutes must elapse between the first and second tests.

If the maximum alcohol limit is exceeded during a breath test, the officers will carry out a second test. At least 10 minutes must pass between the first and second tests. If the driver does not agree with the result of that test, they may request another test, which will be carried out by a doctor using the procedure considered appropriate.
