Once again, another police official has been arrested for drunk driving. This last friday, a public information officer in Albany, New York was arrested after being seen driving without headlights. Not many details yet but he did refuse to take the state's test. I am speculating that maybe he doesn't trust the machines that they use daily and tout as accurate.
It is unclear which machine was offered for the breath test, but Bruce and I have both been able to obtain false results from our intoxilyzer 8000's (registered trademark of CMI). This may be one of the reasons that CMI refuses to sell the Intoxilyzer 8000 to defense attorneys or our experts as they do not want the machine tested to show it's inaccuracies. (Bruce and I are the only attorneys in Oklahoma that own Intoxilyzer 8000s)
