Cevap
Refusing a chemical test after a lawful arrest leads directly to an immediate administrative suspension or revocation of driving privileges.
Under implied consent laws, holding a driver license constitutes automatic agreement to undergo chemical testing if lawfully arrested for impaired driving. Refusing this test triggers an automatic, independent administrative license suspension or revocation.
