  5.36  commissioner of natural resources and to the authority having 
  6.1   responsibility for prosecution of misdemeanor offenses for the 
  6.2   jurisdiction in which the incident occurred that gave rise to

  6.13  penalty of $500 and shall prohibit the person from operating a 
  6.14  snowmobile or all-terrain vehicle, whichever was involved in the

  6.16  pursuant to this section after the person refused to submit to 
  6.17  testing. 
  6.18     (c) On behalf of the commissioner, an officer requiring a 
  6.19  test or directing the administration of a test shall serve on a 
  6.20  person who refused to permit a test immediate notice of 
  6.21  intention to prohibit the operation of a snowmobile or 
  6.22  all-terrain vehicle, and to impose the civil penalty set forth 
  6.23  in this subdivision.  If the officer fails to serve a notice of 
  6.24  intent to suspend operating privileges, the commissioner may

  6.26  three days after mailing.  The notice must advise the person of 
  6.27  the right to obtain administrative and judicial review as 
  6.28  provided in this section.  The prohibition imposed by the 
  6.29  commissioner takes effect ten days after receipt of the notice.

  7.6   controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous 
  7.7   substances; 
  7.8      (2) that a person is subject to a civil penalty of $500 for

  7.10  one-year period from operating a snowmobile or an all-terrain 
  7.11  vehicle; 
  7.12     (3) if the peace officer has probable cause to believe the 
  7.13  person has violated the criminal vehicular homicide and injury 
  7.14  laws, that a test will be taken with or without the person's 
  7.15  consent; and 
  7.16     (4) that the person has the right to consult with an 
  7.17  attorney, but that this right is limited to the extent that it

  7.25  impairing substance, or hazardous substance that is not subject 
  7.26  to testing by a breath test, then a blood or urine test may be 
  7.27  required even after a breath test has been administered.

  9.26  motorboat may not knowingly authorize or allow a person, who by 
  9.27  reason of a physical or mental disability is incapable of 
  9.28  operating the motorboat, to operate the motorboat in operation 
  9.29  on the waters of this state.  
  9.30     (d) The fact that a person charged with a violation of this 
  9.31  subdivision is or has been legally entitled to use alcohol, 
  9.32  drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous substances does not 
  9.33  constitute a defense against the charge. 
  9.34     (e) For purposes of this subdivision, a motorboat "in 
  9.35  operation" does not include a motorboat that is anchored, 
  9.36  beached, or securely fastened to a dock or other permanent 
 10.1   mooring. 
 10.2      Sec. 18.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 86B.331, 
 10.3   subdivision 3, is amended to read: 
 10.4      Subd. 3.  [PRELIMINARY SCREENING TEST.] (a) If an officer 
 10.5   authorized under subdivision 2 to make arrests has reason to 
 10.6   believe from the manner in which a person is operating, 
 10.7   controlling, or acting upon departure from a motorboat, or has 
 10.8   operated or been in control of a motorboat, that the operator 
 10.9   may be violating or has violated subdivision 1, paragraph (a), 
 10.10  the officer may require the operator to provide a breath sample 
 10.11  for a preliminary screening test using a device approved by the 
 10.12  commissioner of public safety for this purpose.  
 10.13     (b) The results of the preliminary screening test shall be 
 10.14  used for the purpose of deciding whether an arrest should be 
 10.15  made under this section and whether to require the chemical 
 10.16  tests authorized in section 86B.335, but may not be used in a 
 10.17  court action except:  (1) to prove that a test was properly 
 10.18  required of an operator pursuant to section 86B.335; or (2) in a 
 10.19  civil action arising out of the operation or use of the 
 10.20  motorboat. 
 10.21     (c) Following the preliminary screening test, additional 
 10.22  tests may be required of the operator as provided under section 
 10.23  86B.335. 
 10.24     (d) An operator who refuses a breath sample is subject to 
 10.25  the provisions of section 86B.335 unless, in compliance with 
 10.26  that section, the operator submits to a blood, breath, or urine 
 10.27  test to determine the presence of alcohol or a controlled 
 10.28  substance, drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous substances. 
 10.29     Sec. 19.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 86B.331, 
 10.30  subdivision 4, is amended to read: 
 10.31     Subd. 4.  [EVIDENCE.] (a) Upon the trial of a prosecution 
 10.32  arising out of acts alleged to have been committed by a person 
 10.33  arrested for operating or being in physical control of a 
 10.34  motorboat in violation of subdivision 1, paragraph (a), or an 
 10.35  ordinance in conformity with it, the court may admit evidence of 
 10.36  the amount of alcohol or a controlled substance, drugs, 
 11.1   impairing substances, or hazardous substances in the person's 
 11.2   blood, breath, or urine as shown by an analysis of those items. 
 11.3      (b) For the purposes of this subdivision: 
 11.4      (1), evidence that there was at the time an alcohol 
 11.5   concentration of 0.05 or less is prima facie evidence that the 
 11.6   person was not under the influence of alcohol; and 
 11.7      (2) evidence that there was at the time an alcohol 
 11.8   concentration of more than 0.05 and less than 0.10 0.04 or more 
 11.9   is relevant evidence in indicating whether or not the person was 
 11.10  under the influence of alcohol. 
 11.11     (c) Evidence of the refusal to take a preliminary screening 
 11.12  test required under subdivision 3 or a chemical test required 
 11.13  under section 86B.335 is admissible into evidence in a 
 11.14  prosecution under this section or an ordinance in conformity 
 11.15  with it. 
 11.16     (d) This subdivision does not limit the introduction of 
 11.17  other competent evidence bearing upon the question of whether or 
 11.18  not the person violated this section, including tests obtained 
 11.19  more than two hours after the alleged violation and results 
 11.20  obtained from partial tests on an infrared breath-testing 
 11.21  instrument.  A result from a partial test is the measurement 
 11.22  obtained by analyzing one adequate breath sample.  A sample is 
 11.23  adequate if the instrument analyzes the sample and does not 
 11.24  indicate the sample is deficient.  
 11.25     (e) If proven by a preponderance of the evidence, it shall 
 11.26  be an affirmative defense to a violation of subdivision 1, 
 11.27  paragraph (a), clause (5), that the defendant consumed a 
 11.28  sufficient quantity of alcohol after the time of operating or 
 11.29  physical control of a motorboat and before the administration of 
 11.30  the evidentiary test to cause the defendant's alcohol 
 11.31  concentration to exceed 0.10.  Provided, that this evidence may 
 11.32  not be admitted unless notice is given to the prosecution prior 
 11.33  to the omnibus or pretrial hearing in the matter. 
 11.34     Sec. 20.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 86B.335, 
 11.35  subdivision 1, is amended to read: 
 11.36     Subdivision 1.  [MANDATORY CHEMICAL TESTING.] A person who 
 12.1   operates or is in physical control of a motorboat in operation 
 12.2   on the waters of this state is required, subject to the 
 12.3   provisions of this section, to take or submit to a test of the 
 12.4   person's blood, breath, or urine for the purpose of determining 
 12.5   the presence and amount of alcohol or a controlled substance, 
 12.6   drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous substances.  A 
 12.7   motorboat "in operation" does not include a motorboat that is 
 12.8   anchored, beached, or securely fastened to a dock or other 
 12.9   permanent mooring.  The test shall be administered at the 
 12.10  direction of an officer authorized to make arrests under section 
 12.11  86B.331, subdivision 2.  Taking or submitting to the test is 
 12.12  mandatory when requested by an officer who has probable cause to 
 12.13  believe the person was operating or in physical control of a 
 12.14  motorboat in violation of section 86B.331, subdivision 1, 
 12.15  paragraph (a), and one of the following conditions exist: 
 12.16     (1) the person has been lawfully placed under arrest for 
 12.17  violating section 86B.331, subdivision 1, paragraph (a); 
 12.18     (2) the person has been involved in a motorboat accident 
 12.19  resulting in property damage, personal injury, or death; 
 12.20     (3) the person has refused to take the preliminary 
 12.21  screening test provided for in section 86B.331, subdivision 3; 
 12.22  or 
 12.23     (4) the screening test was administered and indicated an 
 12.24  alcohol concentration of 0.10 or more or the presence of drugs, 
 12.25  impairing substances, or hazardous substances. 
 12.26     Sec. 21.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 86B.335, 
 12.27  subdivision 2, is amended to read: 
 12.28     Subd. 2.  [REFUSAL TO TAKE TEST PENALTIES; REFUSAL; 
 12.29  REVOCATION OF OPERATOR'S PERMIT.] (a) If a person refuses to 
 12.30  take a test required under subdivision 1, a test is not to be 
 12.31  given, but the officer authorized to make arrests under section 
 12.32  86B.331, subdivision 2, shall report the refusal to the 
 12.33  commissioner of natural resources and to the authority having 
 12.34  responsibility for prosecution of misdemeanor offenses for the 
 12.35  jurisdiction where the incident occurred that gave rise to the 
 12.36  test demand and refusal.  However, if a peace officer has 
 13.1   probable cause to believe that the person has violated section 
 13.2   609.21, a test may be required and obtained despite the person's 
 13.3   refusal. 
 13.4      (b) On certification by the officer that probable cause 
 13.5   existed to believe the person had been operating or in physical 
 13.6   control of a motorboat while under the influence of alcohol or a 
 13.7   controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous 
 13.8   substances, and that the person refused to submit to testing, 
 13.9   the commissioner shall impose a civil penalty of $500 and shall 
 13.10  prohibit the person from operating any motorboat on the waters 
 13.11  of this state for a period of one year even if a test was 
 13.12  obtained pursuant to this section after the person refused to 
 13.13  submit to testing.  If the person refusing to submit to testing 
 13.14  is under the age of 18 years at the time of the refusal, the 
 13.15  person's watercraft operator's permit shall be revoked by the 
 13.16  commissioner as set forth in this subdivision and a new permit 
 13.17  after the revocation must be issued only after the person 
 13.18  successfully completes a watercraft safety course.  
 13.19     (c) On behalf of the commissioner, an officer requiring a 
 13.20  test or directing the administration of a test shall serve on a 
 13.21  person who refused to permit a test immediate notice of 
 13.22  intention to impose the civil penalty set forth in this 
 13.23  subdivision, to prohibit the operation of motorboats, and to 
 13.24  revoke a watercraft operator's permit.  The officer shall take a 
 13.25  watercraft operator's permit held by the person, and shall send 
 13.26  the permit to the commissioner along with the certification 
 13.27  provided for in this subdivision.  If the officer fails to serve 
 13.28  a notice of intent to revoke, the commissioner may notify the 
 13.29  person by mail and the notice is deemed received three days 
 13.30  after mailing.  The notice must advise the person of the right 
 13.31  to obtain administrative and judicial review as provided in this 
 13.32  section.  The prohibition and revocation, if any, shall take 
 13.33  effect ten days after receipt of the notice.  The civil penalty 
 13.34  is imposed on receipt of the notice and shall be paid within 30 
 13.35  days of imposition.  
 13.36     (d) A person who operates a motorboat on the waters of this 
 14.1   state during the period the person is prohibited from operating 
 14.2   a motorboat as provided under paragraph (b) or (c) is guilty of 
 14.3   a misdemeanor.  
 14.4      Sec. 22.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 86B.335, 
 14.5   subdivision 6, is amended to read: 
 14.6      Subd. 6.  [RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS.] At the time a test is 
 14.7   requested, the person must be informed: 
 14.8      (1) that Minnesota law requires a person to take a test to 
 14.9   determine if the person is under the influence of alcohol or a 
 14.10  controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous 
 14.11  substances; 
 14.12     (2) that a person is subject to a civil penalty of $500 for 
 14.13  refusing to take the test and, in addition, the person may be 
 14.14  prohibited from operating any motorboat; 
 14.15     (3) if the peace officer has probable cause to believe the 
 14.16  person has violated the criminal vehicular homicide and injury 
 14.17  laws, that a test will be taken with or without the person's 
 14.18  consent; and 
 14.19     (4) that the person has the right to consult with an 
 14.20  attorney, but that this right is limited to the extent that it 
 14.21  cannot unreasonably delay administration of the test or the 
 14.22  person will be deemed to have refused the test. 
 14.23     Sec. 23.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 86B.335, 
 14.24  subdivision 7, is amended to read: 
 14.25     Subd. 7.  [REQUIREMENT OF BLOOD OR URINE TEST.] 
 14.26  Notwithstanding subdivision 1, if there are reasonable and 
 14.27  probable grounds to believe there is impairment by a controlled 
 14.28  drug, impairing substance, or hazardous substance which that is 
 14.29  not subject to testing by a blood or breath test, then a blood 
 14.30  or urine test may be required even after a blood or breath test 
 14.31  has been administered. 
 14.32     Sec. 24.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 86B.335, 
 14.33  subdivision 10, is amended to read:

 15.1   assistant acting at the request of a peace officer authorized to 
 15.2   make arrests under section 86B.331, subdivision 2, may withdraw 
 15.3   blood for the purpose of determining the presence of alcohol or 
 15.4   controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous 
 15.5   substances.  This limitation does not apply to the taking of a 
 15.6   breath or urine sample.  The person tested has the right to have 
 15.7   someone of the person's own choosing administer a chemical test 
 15.8   or tests in addition to any administered at the direction of a 
 15.9   peace officer; provided, that the additional test sample on 
 15.10  behalf of the person is obtained at the place where the person 
 15.11  is in custody, after the test administered at the direction of a 
 15.12  peace officer, and at no expense to the state.  
 15.13     (b) The failure or inability to obtain an additional test 
 15.14  or tests by a person shall not preclude the admission in 
 15.15  evidence of the test taken at the direction of a peace officer 
 15.16  unless the additional test was prevented or denied by the peace 
 15.17  officer.  
 15.18     (c) The physician, medical technician, physician's trained 
 15.19  mobile intensive care paramedic, medical technologist,

 15.21  request of a peace officer for the purpose of determining 
 15.22  alcohol the concentration of alcohol, drugs, impairing 
 15.23  substances, or hazardous substances shall in no manner be liable 
 15.24  in any civil or criminal action except for negligence in drawing 
 15.25  the blood.  The person administering a breath test shall be 
 15.26  fully trained in the administration of breath tests pursuant to 
 15.27  training given by the commissioner of public safety.  
 15.28     Sec. 25.  Minnesota Statutes 1995 Supplement, section 
 15.29  86B.335, subdivision 13, is amended to read: 
 15.30     Subd. 13.  [CORONER TO REPORT DEATH.] Every coroner or

 15.33  jurisdiction of the coroner or medical examiner as the result of 
 15.34  an accident involving any watercraft or drowning and the 
 15.35  circumstances of the accident.  The report shall be made within 
 15.36  15 days after the death or recovery. 
 16.1      In the case of operators killed in watercraft accidents, or 
 16.2   the death of passengers or drowning victims 14 years of age or 
 16.3   older, who die within four hours after accident, the coroner or 
 16.4   medical examiner shall examine the body and shall make tests as 
 16.5   are necessary to determine the presence and percentage 
 16.6   concentration of alcohol, and drugs, impairing substances, and 
 16.7   hazardous substances if feasible, in the blood of the victim.  
 16.8   This information shall be included in each report submitted 
 16.9   pursuant to the provisions of this subdivision and shall be 
 16.10  tabulated by the department of natural resources.  Periodically, 
 16.11  the commissioner of natural resources must transmit a summary of 
 16.12  the reports to the commissioner of public safety.

 16.24  amended by adding a subdivision to read: 
 16.25     Subd. 58.  [IMPAIRING SUBSTANCE.] "Impairing substance" 
 16.26  means any substance or combination of substances, other than 
 16.27  alcohol, a drug, or a hazardous substance, which has the 
 16.28  capacity to affect the nervous system, brain, or muscles of a 
 16.29  person so as to impair the person's ability or capacity to 
 16.30  drive, operate, or be in physical control of a motor vehicle. 
 16.31     Sec. 29.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 97B.065,

 25.1   control of a motor vehicle and before the administration of the

 25.15  defendant in accordance with sections 152.11 and 152.12.

 28.33  from another state in conformity with either of them is an 
 28.34  offense.  
 28.35     (d) Whenever department records show that the violation 
 28.36  involved personal injury or death to any person, not less than 
 29.1   90 additional days shall be added to the base periods provided 
 29.2   above.  
 29.3      (e) Except for a person whose license has been revoked 
 29.4   under paragraph (b), and except for a person who commits a 
 29.5   violation described in subdivision 3, paragraph (c), clause (4), 
 29.6   (child endangerment), any person whose license has been revoked 
 29.7   pursuant to section 169.123 as the result of the same incident, 
 29.8   and who does not have a prior impaired driving conviction or 
 29.9   prior license revocation as defined in subdivision 3 within the 
 29.10  previous ten years, is subject to the mandatory revocation 
 29.11  provisions of paragraph (a), clause (1) or (2), in lieu of the 
 29.12  mandatory revocation provisions of section 169.123. 
 29.13     (f) As used in this subdivision, the terms "prior impaired 
 29.14  driving conviction" and "prior license revocation" have the 
 29.15  meanings given in subdivision 3, paragraph (a). 
 29.16     Sec. 46.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 169.121, 
 29.17  subdivision 6, is amended to read: 
 29.18     Subd. 6.  [PRELIMINARY SCREENING TEST.] (a) When a peace 
 29.19  officer has reason to believe from the manner in which a person 
 29.20  is driving, operating, controlling, or acting upon departure 
 29.21  from a motor vehicle, or has driven, operated, or controlled a 
 29.22  motor vehicle, that the driver may be violating or has violated 
 29.23  subdivision 1 or section 169.1211, the officer may require the 
 29.24  driver to provide a sample of the driver's breath for a 
 29.25  preliminary screening test using a device approved by the 
 29.26  commissioner of public safety for this purpose. 
 29.27     (b) The results of this preliminary screening test shall be 
 29.28  used for the purpose of deciding whether an arrest should be 
 29.29  made and whether to require the tests authorized in section 
 29.30  169.123, but shall not be used in any court action except (1) to 
 29.31  prove that a test was properly required of a person pursuant to 
 29.32  section 169.123, subdivision 2; (2) in a civil action arising 
 29.33  out of the operation or use of the motor vehicle; (3) in an 
 29.34  action for license reinstatement under section 171.19; or (4) in 
 29.35  a prosecution or juvenile court proceeding concerning a 
 29.36  violation of section 340A.503, subdivision 1, paragraph (a), 
 30.1   clause (2). 
 30.2      (c) Following the screening test additional tests may be 
 30.3   required of the driver pursuant to the provisions of section 
 30.4   169.123. 
 30.5      (d) The driver who refuses to furnish a sample of the 
 30.6   driver's breath is subject to the provisions of section 169.123 
 30.7   unless, in compliance with section 169.123, the driver submits 
 30.8   to a blood, breath or urine test to determine the presence of 
 30.9   alcohol or a controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, 
 30.10  or hazardous substances.  
 30.11     Sec. 47.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 169.121, 
 30.12  subdivision 10a, is amended to read: 
 30.13     Subd. 10a.  [CIVIL ACTION; PUNITIVE DAMAGES.] In a civil 
 30.14  action involving a motor vehicle accident, it is sufficient for 
 30.15  the trier of fact to consider an award of punitive damages if 
 30.16  there is evidence that the accident was caused by a driver: 
 30.17     (1) with a blood an alcohol concentration of .10 or more,; 
 30.18     (2) who was under the influence of a controlled substance, 
 30.19  or drug that affects the nervous system, brain, or muscles of 
 30.20  the person so as to impair the person's ability to drive or 
 30.21  operate the motor vehicle; 
 30.22     (3) who was under the influence of alcohol and refused to 
 30.23  take a test required under section 169.123, subdivision 2, is 
 30.24  sufficient for the trier of fact to consider an award of 
 30.25  punitive damages; or 
 30.26     (4) who was knowingly under the influence of a hazardous 
 30.27  substance or an impairing substance that affects the person's 
 30.28  nervous system, brain, or muscles so as to impair the person's 
 30.29  ability to drive or operate a motor vehicle. 
 30.30     A criminal charge or conviction is not a prerequisite to 
 30.31  consideration of punitive damages under this subdivision.  At 
 30.32  the trial in an action where the trier of fact will consider an 
 30.33  award of punitive damages, evidence that the driver has been 
 30.34  convicted of violating this section, section 169.129, or 609.21 
 30.35  is admissible into evidence. 
 30.36     Sec. 48.  [169.1218] [UNDERAGE DRINKING AND DRIVING.] 
 31.1      (a) It is a misdemeanor for a person under the age of 21 
 31.2   years to drive, operate, or be in physical control of a motor 
 31.3   vehicle while consuming alcoholic beverages, or after having 
 31.4   consumed alcoholic beverages while there is physical evidence of 
 31.5   the consumption present in the person's body. 
 31.6      (b) When a person is found to have committed an offense 
 31.7   under paragraph (a), the court shall notify the commissioner of 
 31.8   public safety of its determination.  Upon receipt of the court's 
 31.9   determination, the commissioner shall suspend the person's 
 31.10  driver's license or operating privileges for 30 days, or for 180 
 31.11  days if the person has previously been found to have violated 
 31.12  paragraph (a) or a statute or ordinance in conformity with 
 31.13  paragraph (a). 
 31.14     (c) If the person's conduct violates section 169.121, 
 31.15  subdivision 1, or 169.1211, the penalties and license sanctions 
 31.16  in those laws apply instead of the license sanction in paragraph 
 31.17  (b). 
 31.18     (d) An offense under paragraph (a) may be prosecuted either 
 31.19  at the place where consumption occurs or the place where 
 31.20  evidence of consumption is observed. 
 31.21     Sec. 49.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 169.123, 
 31.22  subdivision 2, is amended to read: 
 31.23     Subd. 2.  [IMPLIED CONSENT; CONDITIONS; ELECTION OF TEST.] 
 31.24  (a) Any person who drives, operates, or is in physical control 
 31.25  of a motor vehicle within this state or upon the ice of any 
 31.26  boundary water of this state consents, subject to the provisions 
 31.27  of this section and sections 169.121 and 169.1211, to a chemical 
 31.28  test of that person's blood, breath, or urine for the purpose of 
 31.29  determining the presence of alcohol or a controlled substance, 
 31.30  drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous substances.  The test 
 31.31  shall be administered at the direction of a peace officer.  The 
 31.32  test may be required of a person when an officer has probable 
 31.33  cause to believe the person was driving, operating, or in 
 31.34  physical control of a motor vehicle in violation of section 
 31.35  169.121 and one of the following conditions exist: 
 31.36     (1) the person has been lawfully placed under arrest for 
 32.1   violation of section 169.121, or an ordinance in conformity with 
 32.2   it; 
 32.3      (2) the person has been involved in a motor vehicle 
 32.4   accident or collision resulting in property damage, personal 
 32.5   injury, or death; 
 32.6      (3) the person has refused to take the screening test 
 32.7   provided for by section 169.121, subdivision 6; or 
 32.8      (4) the screening test was administered and indicated an 
 32.9   alcohol concentration of 0.10 or more or the presence of a drug, 
 32.10  impairing substance, or hazardous substance.  
 32.11     The test may also be required of a person when an officer 
 32.12  has probable cause to believe the person was driving, operating, 
 32.13  or in physical control of a commercial motor vehicle with the 
 32.14  presence of any alcohol. 
 32.15     (b) At the time a test is requested, the person shall be 
 32.16  informed: 
 32.17     (1) that Minnesota law requires the person to take a test: 
 32.18  (i) to determine if the person is under the influence of alcohol 
 32.19  or, drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous substances; (ii) 
 32.20  to determine the presence of a controlled substance listed in 
 32.21  schedule I or II; or, (iii) if the motor vehicle was a 
 32.22  commercial motor vehicle, that Minnesota law requires the person 
 32.23  to take a test to determine the presence of alcohol; 
 32.24     (2) that refusal to take a test is a crime; 
 32.25     (3) if the peace officer has probable cause to believe the 
 32.26  person has violated the criminal vehicular homicide and injury 
 32.27  laws, that a test will be taken with or without the person's 
 32.28  consent; and 
 32.29     (4) that the person has the right to consult with an 
 32.30  attorney, but that this right is limited to the extent that it 
 32.31  cannot unreasonably delay administration of the test. 
 32.32     (c) The peace officer who requires a test pursuant to this 
 32.33  subdivision may direct whether the test shall be of blood, 
 32.34  breath, or urine.  Action may be taken against a person who 
 32.35  refuses to take a blood test only if an alternative test was 
 32.36  offered and action may be taken against a person who refuses to 
 33.1   take a urine test only if an alternative test was offered. 
 33.2      Sec. 50.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 169.123, 
 33.3   subdivision 2a, is amended to read: 
 33.4      Subd. 2a.  [REQUIREMENT OF URINE OR BLOOD TEST.] 
 33.5   Notwithstanding subdivision 2, if there is probable cause to 
 33.6   believe (1) there is impairment by a drug, impairing substance, 
 33.7   or hazardous substance, or (2) that a controlled substance 
 33.8   listed in schedule I or II is present in the person's body, that 
 33.9   is not subject to testing by a breath test, a urine or blood 
 33.10  test may be required even after a breath test has been 
 33.11  administered.  Action may be taken against a person who refuses 
 33.12  to take a blood test under this subdivision only if a urine test 
 33.13  was offered and action may be taken against a person who refuses 
 33.14  to take a urine test only if a blood test was offered. 
 33.15     Sec. 51.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 169.123, 
 33.16  subdivision 3, is amended to read: 
 33.17     Subd. 3.  [MANNER OF MAKING TEST; ADDITIONAL TESTS.] (a) 
 33.18  Only a physician, medical technician, physician's trained mobile 
 33.19  intensive care paramedic, registered nurse, medical technologist 
 33.20  or laboratory assistant acting at the request of a peace officer 
 33.21  may withdraw blood for the purpose of determining the presence 
 33.22  of alcohol or controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, 
 33.23  or hazardous substances.  This limitation does not apply to the 
 33.24  taking of a breath or urine sample.  The person tested has the 
 33.25  right to have someone of the person's own choosing administer a 
 33.26  chemical test or tests in addition to any administered at the 
 33.27  direction of a peace officer; provided, that the additional test 
 33.28  sample on behalf of the person is obtained at the place where 
 33.29  the person is in custody, after the test administered at the 
 33.30  direction of a peace officer, and at no expense to the state. 
 33.31     (b) The failure or inability to obtain an additional test 
 33.32  or tests by a person shall not preclude the admission in 
 33.33  evidence of the test taken at the direction of a peace officer 
 33.34  unless the additional test was prevented or denied by the peace 
 33.35  officer. 
 33.36     (c) The physician, medical technician, physician's trained 
 34.1   mobile intensive care paramedic, medical technologist, 
 34.2   laboratory assistant or registered nurse drawing blood at the 
 34.3   request of a peace officer for the purpose of 
 34.4   determining alcohol the concentration of alcohol, drugs, 
 34.5   impairing substances, or hazardous substances shall in no manner 
 34.6   be liable in any civil or criminal action except for negligence 
 34.7   in drawing the blood.  The person administering a breath test 
 34.8   shall be fully trained in the administration of breath tests 
 34.9   pursuant to training given by the commissioner of public safety. 
 34.10     Sec. 52.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 169.123, 
 34.11  subdivision 4, is amended to read: 
 34.12     Subd. 4.  [REFUSAL; REVOCATION OF LICENSE.] (a) If a person 
 34.13  refuses to permit a test, none shall be given, but the peace 
 34.14  officer shall report the refusal to the commissioner of public 
 34.15  safety and the authority having responsibility for prosecution 
 34.16  of misdemeanor offenses for the jurisdiction in which the acts 
 34.17  occurred.  However, if a peace officer has probable cause to 
 34.18  believe that the person has violated section 609.21, a test may 
 34.19  be required and obtained despite the person's refusal.  A 
 34.20  refusal to submit to an alcohol concentration test does not 
 34.21  constitute a violation of section 609.50, unless the refusal was 
 34.22  accompanied by force or violence or the threat of force or 
 34.23  violence.  
 34.24     (b) If a person submits to a test and the test results 
 34.25  indicate an alcohol concentration of 0.10 or more or the 
 34.26  presence of drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous 
 34.27  substances, or if a person was driving, operating, or in 
 34.28  physical control of a commercial motor vehicle and the test 
 34.29  results indicate an alcohol concentration of 0.04 or more, the 
 34.30  results of the test shall be reported to the commissioner of 
 34.31  public safety and to the authority having responsibility for 
 34.32  prosecution of misdemeanor offenses for the jurisdiction in 
 34.33  which the acts occurred. 
 34.34     (c) Upon certification by the peace officer that there 
 34.35  existed probable cause to believe the person had been driving, 
 34.36  operating, or in physical control of a motor vehicle while under 
 35.1   the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance in violation 
 35.2   of section 169.121 and that the person refused to submit to a 
 35.3   test, the commissioner of public safety shall revoke the 
 35.4   person's license or permit to drive, or nonresident operating 
 35.5   privilege, for a period of one year even if a test was obtained 
 35.6   pursuant to this section after the person refused to submit to 
 35.7   testing.  
 35.8      (d) Upon certification by the peace officer that there 
 35.9   existed probable cause to believe the person had been driving, 
 35.10  operating, or in physical control of a commercial motor vehicle 
 35.11  with the presence of any alcohol, drugs, impairing substances, 
 35.12  or hazardous substances, and that the person refused to submit 
 35.13  to a test, the commissioner shall disqualify the person from 
 35.14  operating a commercial motor vehicle for a period of one year 
 35.15  under section 171.165 and shall revoke the person's license or 
 35.16  permit to drive or nonresident operating privilege for a period 
 35.17  of one year.  
 35.18     (e) Upon certification by the peace officer that there 
 35.19  existed probable cause to believe the person had been driving, 
 35.20  operating or in physical control of a motor vehicle while under 
 35.21  the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance in violation 
 35.22  of section 169.121 and that the person submitted to a test and 
 35.23  the test results indicate an alcohol concentration of 0.10 or 
 35.24  more or the presence of a drug, impairing substance, or 
 35.25  hazardous substance, the commissioner of public safety shall 
 35.26  revoke the person's license or permit to drive, or nonresident 
 35.27  operating privilege, for: 
 35.28     (1) for a period of 90 days; or 
 35.29     (2) if the person is under the age of 21 years, for a 
 35.30  period of six months; or 
 35.31     (3) if the person's driver's license or driving privileges 
 35.32  have been revoked for a person with a prior impaired driving 
 35.33  conviction or prior license revocation within the past five 
 35.34  years under this section or section 169.121, for a period of 180 
 35.35  days.  
 35.36     (f) On certification by the peace officer that there 
 36.1   existed probable cause to believe the person had been driving, 
 36.2   operating, or in physical control of a commercial motor vehicle 
 36.3   with any presence of alcohol and that the person submitted to a 
 36.4   test and the test results indicated an alcohol concentration of 
 36.5   0.04 or more, the commissioner of public safety shall disqualify 
 36.6   the person from operating a commercial motor vehicle under 
 36.7   section 171.165.  
 36.8      (g) If the person is a resident without a license or permit 
 36.9   to operate a motor vehicle in this state, the commissioner of 
 36.10  public safety shall deny to the person the issuance of a license 
 36.11  or permit for the same period after the date of the alleged 
 36.12  violation as provided herein for revocation, subject to review 
 36.13  as hereinafter provided. 
 36.14     (h) As used in this subdivision, the terms "prior impaired 
 36.15  driving conviction" and "prior license revocation" have the 
 36.16  meanings given in section 169.121, subdivision 3, paragraph (a).

 36.30  petition for review.  The judicial district administrator shall 
 36.31  establish procedures to ensure efficient compliance with the 
 36.32  provisions of this subdivision.  To accomplish this, the 
 36.33  administrator may, whenever possible, consolidate and transfer 
 36.34  review hearings among the county courts within the judicial 
 36.35  district.  
 36.36     (b) The scope of the hearing shall be limited to the issues 
 37.1   of in clauses (1) to (9): 
 37.2      (1) whether Did the peace officer had have probable cause 
 37.3   to believe the person was driving, operating, or in physical

 41.12  section 169.1218, paragraph (a). 
 41.13     However, an action taken by the commissioner under clause 
 41.14  (2) or (5) must conform to the recommendation of the court when 
 41.15  made in connection with the prosecution of the licensee.

 41.32  person's license or privilege has been revoked or suspended for 
 41.33  a second or subsequent violation of section 169.121, 169.123, or 
 41.34  a statute or ordinance from another state in conformity with

 43.13  convicted of or adjudicated for an offense under paragraph (a), 
 43.14  clause (2).

 44.32  violation of subdivision 2, the court may admit evidence of the 
 44.33  amount of alcohol or a controlled substance, drugs, impairing 
 44.34  substances, or hazardous substances in the person's blood,

 45.8   evidence may not be admitted unless notice is given to the 
 45.9   prosecution prior to the omnibus or pretrial hearing in the 
 45.10  matter.  
 45.11     The foregoing provisions do not limit the introduction of 
 45.12  any other competent evidence bearing upon the question whether 
 45.13  or not the person violated this section, including tests 
 45.14  obtained more than two hours after the alleged violation and 
 45.15  results obtained from partial tests on an infrared 
 45.16  breath-testing instrument.  A result from a partial test is the

 45.21     Subd. 7.  [PRELIMINARY SCREENING TEST.] When a peace 
 45.22  officer has reason to believe that a person may be violating or 
 45.23  has violated subdivision 2, the officer may require the person 
 45.24  to provide a sample of the person's breath for a preliminary 
 45.25  screening test using a device approved by the commissioner of 
 45.26  public safety or the commissioner of transportation for this 
 45.27  purpose.  The results of this preliminary screening test shall 
 45.28  be used for the purpose of deciding whether to require the tests 
 45.29  authorized in section 360.0753, but shall not be used in any 
 45.30  court action except to prove that a test was properly required 
 45.31  of a person pursuant to section 360.0753.  Following the 
 45.32  screening test, additional tests may be required of the person 
 45.33  pursuant to the provisions of section 360.0753.  
 45.34     A person who refuses to furnish a sample of the person's 
 45.35  breath is subject to the provisions of section 360.0753 unless, 
 45.36  in compliance with section 360.0753, the person submits to a 
 46.1   blood, breath, or urine test to determine the presence of 
 46.2   alcohol or a controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, 
 46.3   or hazardous substances.  
 46.4      Sec. 66.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 360.0753, 
 46.5   subdivision 2, is amended to read: 
 46.6      Subd. 2.  [IMPLIED CONSENT; CONDITIONS; ELECTION AS TO TYPE 
 46.7   OF TEST.] (a) Any person who operates or attempts to operate an

 46.9   this state consents, subject to the provisions of this section 
 46.10  and section 360.0752, to a chemical test of that person's blood, 
 46.11  breath, or urine for the purpose of determining the presence of 
 46.12  alcohol or a controlled substance, drugs, impairing substances, 
 46.13  or hazardous substances.  The test shall be administered at the 
 46.14  direction of a peace officer.  The test may be required of a 
 46.15  person when an officer has probable cause to believe the person 
 46.16  was operating or attempting to operate an aircraft in violation 
 46.17  of section 360.0752 and one of the following conditions exists:  
 46.18     (1) the person has been lawfully placed under arrest for 
 46.19  violation of section 360.0752; 
 46.20     (2) the person has been involved in an aircraft accident or 
 46.21  collision resulting in property damage, personal injury, or 
 46.22  death; 
 46.23     (3) the person has refused to take the screening test 
 46.24  provided for by section 360.0752; 
 46.25     (4) the screening test was administered and recorded an 
 46.26  alcohol concentration of 0.04 or more or the presence of a drug, 
 46.27  impairing substance, or hazardous substance; or 
 46.28     (5) the officer had probable cause to believe that the 
 46.29  person was operating or attempting to operate an aircraft with 
 46.30  any amount of alcohol present in the person's body.  
 46.31     (b) At the time a test is requested, the person shall be 
 46.32  informed:  
 46.33     (1) that Minnesota law requires the person to take a test 
 46.34  to determine the presence of alcohol, drugs, impairing 
 46.35  substances, or hazardous substances or to determine if the 
 46.36  person is under the influence of alcohol or a controlled 
 47.1   substance, drugs, impairing substances, or hazardous substances; 
 47.2      (2) that whether a test is taken or refused, the person may 
 47.3   be subject to criminal prosecution for an alcohol or controlled 
 47.4   substance, drug, impairing substance, or hazardous substance 
 47.5   related offense relating to the operation of an aircraft; 
 47.6      (3) that if testing is refused, the person may be subject 
 47.7   to criminal prosecution because the person refused testing and 
 47.8   the person will be disqualified from operating an aircraft for a 
 47.9   minimum period of one year; 
 47.10     (4) if the peace officer has probable cause to believe the 
 47.11  person has violated the criminal vehicular homicide and injury 
 47.12  laws, that a test will be taken with or without the person's 
 47.13  consent; and 
 47.14     (5) that the person has the right to consult with an 
 47.15  attorney, but that this right is limited to the extent that it 
 47.16  cannot unreasonably delay administration of the test.  
 47.17     (c) The peace officer who requires a test pursuant to this 
 47.18  subdivision may direct whether the test shall be of blood, 
 47.19  breath, or urine.  Action may be taken against a person who 
 47.20  refuses to take a blood test only if an alternative test was 
 47.21  offered, and action may be taken against a person who refuses to 
 47.22  take a urine test only if an alternative test was offered.  
 47.23     Sec. 67.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 360.0753, 
 47.24  subdivision 3, is amended to read: 
 47.25     Subd. 3.  [REQUIREMENT OF URINE OR BLOOD TEST.] 
 47.26  Notwithstanding subdivision 2, if there is probable cause to 
 47.27  believe there is impairment by a controlled drug, impairing 
 47.28  substance, or hazardous substance that is not subject to testing 
 47.29  by a breath test, then a urine or blood test may be required 
 47.30  even after a breath test has been administered.  Action may be 
 47.31  taken against a person who refuses to take a blood test under 
 47.32  this subdivision only if a urine test was offered, and action 
 47.33  may be taken against a person who refuses to take a urine test 
 47.34  only if a blood test was offered.  
 47.35     Sec. 68.  Minnesota Statutes 1994, section 360.0753, 
 47.36  subdivision 6, is amended to read: 
 48.1      Subd. 6.  [MANNER OF MAKING TEST; ADDITIONAL TESTS.] (a) 
 48.2   Only a physician, medical technician, physician's trained mobile 
 48.3   intensive care paramedic, registered nurse, medical 
 48.4   technologist, or laboratory assistant acting at the request of a 
 48.5   peace officer may withdraw blood for the purpose of determining 
 48.6   the presence of alcohol or controlled substance, drugs, 
 48.7   impairing substances, or hazardous substances.  This limitation 
 48.8   does not apply to the taking of a breath or urine sample.  The 
 48.9   person tested has the right to have someone of the person's own

 55.12  officer candidates and an in-service option for current peace 
 55.13  officers. 
 55.14     (d) To the extent practicable, the plan must present 
 55.15  alternative training requirement scenarios and timetables 
 55.16  associated with different levels of training resources.  The 
 55.17  board shall report this plan to the legislature by January 16, 
 55.18  1997.
