In a move surely not intended to troll FARK's DUI White Knights, and piss on the United States Constitution, Tennessee cops announce "No Refusal" Roadblock, complete with roadside judge to authorize blood draws
'No refusal' Labor Day weekend to combat DUI in Shelby, Tipton counties
Tennessee state troopers, sheriff's deputies and police in Shelby and Tipton counties will use a new weapon provided by state lawmakers to combat driving under the influence this Labor Day weekend, officials announced Friday.
A new "no refusal" law allows law enforcement officers to obtain search warrants and have blood samples drawn if drivers suspected of being under the influence refuse blood alcohol tests.
"This was the only area of Tennessee law where we let the criminals control the evidence," said Dist. Atty. Mike Dunavant, whose 25th Judicial District includes Tipton County.
State Safety and Homeland Security Commissioner Bill Gibbons said Tennessee Highway Patrol troopers during the July Fourth weekend targeted five counties, including Davidson in Middle Tennessee, during a similar enforcement campaign.
"We did not have a single traffic fatality in those counties," Gibbons said.
