No Refusal Zones Are Trending

The City of St. Louis announced that it would be a "no refusal zone" in suspected drunk driving cases beginning December 30, 2013.  If a suspected drunk driver refuses the breath test, the City advertises that an officer will apply to a judge for a search warrant for that person's blood to be drawn and chemical testing be performed on the sample.  A link to the article can be found at the bottom of this page.

According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Arizona, Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Texas, and Utah are "no refusal States".  Moreover, according to NHTSA, a handful of other States have necessary legal authority to set up "no refusal" initiatives.  South Carolina is not a "no refusal State".  In simple DUI cases in South Carolina, a blood sample cannot be taken unless the person has an injured mouth, is unconscious, or for another reason stated by a licensed medical professional.
