Avoiding Unnecessary Charges: Refusing to Provide a Breathe Sample
On December 18, 2008, a 29-year-old driver was stopped in B.C. for showing symptoms of alcohol impairment. When the driver was asked to wait several minutes, the driver ran from the scene.
Not too long after, the police dog service found the driver hiding in a nearby residence. The male was arrested and charged not only for Refusing to Provide a Breathe Sample, but also for Escape Lawful custody, and Break and Enter.
