Yes. My son went through this, the cop wasn’t satisfied with the clear breathalyzer at a routine traffic stop and wanted blood for weed. He refused and has to get a fucking interlock in his car and spent multiple years suspended over the whole thing.

This is probably a dumb question, I expect everyone knows the answer, but here it is:

In retrospect, do you think it was a good idea to refuse the blood test and take the license suspension rather than getting the blood test and certainly failing?

Honestly I think fighting a marijuana charge would have been cheaper and had a better chance at being successful. The DUI you get for refusal is so expensive and you can’t fight it.
