NO refusal DUI test

"No refusal" DUI checkpoints could be coming to Tampa | Tampa Bay, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, Sarasota | WTSP.com 10 News

I see this coming soon to a road near you...

I've seen it in VA also out by Reston. I just passed the convoy before they set up across 3100 N.

I am surprised that more states don't do it.

I am not sticking up for anyone in this but the reason why the judge is on site is so that the search warrant can issue without having to transport the cpative driver anywhere. The judge will watch the driver, smell his breath, listen to him/her talk and make a quick decision. The same judge who issues the warrant wont be the same one that the case goes to trial before, but they are all brothers. I dont think Florida has ever been known as an easy state to drive under the influance in.

I'll tell you one thing. No judge in Massachusetts will ever sit at any sobriety checkpoint site where cops are checking drivers.

Mass judges would want to thoroughly "examine" the evidence, and then claim that they were under the influence of "bad ice cubes" like all the political hacks do.
