Blood Alcohol Analysis – DUI
Scenario: On his way home from working a double shift at his job as a bartender at one of the exclusive Country Clubs, a man jumped the median in his pickup truck and ran head on into a small car driven by woman who was 5 months pregnant. Upon impact, the pregnant mother was thrown from her car onto the highway and suffered severe injuries to her lower back. When the paramedics arrived on the scene, the woman appeared to be having complications with breathing and she could not stand up. The paramedics put her in their ambulance and rushed her to the nearest emergency room.
When investigators, who were accident reconstruction analyst, arrived at the crime scene, they approached the man that had been driving the pickup truck and asked what had happened. The man told them that he didn’t remember much about the accident but he thought he might have been tired from working a double shift at the Country Club and he could have accidentally fallen asleep. At this time the investigators believed that they smelled alcohol coming from the man and they asked him if he had been drinking. The man responded that he had not been drinking, but he was a bartender and he might have wasted some alcohol on himself earlier that night. The officers then noticed that the man had blood shot eyes and he was sort of slurring his speech.
The investigator then explained to the man that they where going to perform a battery of Field Coordination Tests that may indicate that he was under the influence of alcohol for purposes of driving a motor vehicle. The man agreed and the investigator began to give the man the screening tests to make his determination. After the investigator finished the tests, the results of the tests made him question if the man was under the influence of alcohol so he arrested the man and took him in for further instrumental analysis.
Could this man really be impaired from alcohol while driving his truck or could he just be tired and sleepy? What are steps that can be taken to make this determination on any driver of a motor vehicle?
