Can my drivers license be suspended if I refuse or fail to submit to a blood alcohol test?
Yes. If you refuse a police officer’s request to submit to or complete a chemical test to determine your blood-alcohol level, you may lose the privilege of having a driver’s license for a period of one year. Before your license is suspended, the Department of Motor Vehicles must show that the police officer who requested the test had a reasonable cause to believe that you were operating a motor vehicle in violation of the laws against driving under the influence and that you refused or failed to complete any of the requested blood alcohol content tests.
