Saturday morning I was involved in an accident.
I was getting on the freeway and looked over to grab something from my passenger seat, at this moment a Semi-truck w/ a flat bed trailer hit his brakes in front of me. I slammed into the back of him.
When the officers showed up they asked me if I had been drinking, I said yes. They asked if I wanted to go to the hospital as my knee was injured and I said yes. Later at the hospital they informed me of what I was being charged with and asked if I would give consent to a blood test. I agreed and signed the paper work. However, that blood test was never taken. I wasn't given any tests at the scene of the accident.
My question is, if they didn't take the blood or give any breathalizer, how can they prove that I was over the limit?
Thank you,
