It gives leo a way to take blood from any driver they want, at their discretion. This goes far beyond unreasonable search and seizure/ self incrimination, and its sad this is even up for debate. What is worse is that no amount of protesting by patients and caregivers will change anything...the lawmakers will do what LEO tells them, and we will all suffer. There is nothing anyone can do about it.
I'm unaware of any provision of the proposal that abrogates the requirement that the police officer have reasonable suspicion in order to pull you over, and probable cause to request testing. If your complaint is that cops lie about why they pull someone over or what their basis for probable cause is, that is a larger problem that has nothing to do with this proposal. Why 18-24?
