Bill overview
This bill expands Michigan’s vehicle code to allow law enforcement to test individuals for intoxication or impairment using a wider range of bodily fluids, including saliva (oral fluid), in addition to blood and breath. It clarifies the circumstances under which a driver can be required to submit to a preliminary chemical test, outlines the admissibility of test results in court, and addresses the consequences of refusing a test. The bill also modifies penalties for refusing a test and clarifies procedures related to temporary license suspension and revocation.
