so long as the driver passes the blood test?
Most likely a mobile, roadside, breath analyzer test
and/or a "walk the line" roadside stroll.
------------------
Calgary, Alberta, Canada just implemented a new law where by every single traffic stop you will be breath tested with a mobile tester. Its not Alberta wide, just certain jurisdictions. Sidenote, in Airdrie, Alberta, a stones throw North from Calgary. A man had a medical problem, frocking pigs thought he was drunk, threw him in the drunk tank, he had multiple siezures and now suffers and is sueing for $6M. Not only wrongful arrest and inprisonment, but also no one looking after the inmate. Thing is he probably didnt even smell of booze. The soon to be rich millionaire told the pigs to give him the breath test, pigs said they dont have to. Crazy!
As for open liquor container, I dunno, but Limo's have open booze but those limo's have a divider so that could be apart of the jargon legislated. What about people returning booze bottles to bottle depot, they are open containers. I know there's been a few pinched on that, no doubt at all on that.
