“encourages the availability of scientific evidence to make . . . a determination [of impairment].”
2 later decisions quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Bonvie · State v. Bonvie“The purpose of the statute is to make physical evidence available to the prosecution where a person is suspected of operating a motor vehicle when intoxicated .... Although it may become impossible to provide the precise physical evidence, the statutory purpose can as effectively be achieved by a concession that the results would be incriminatory. This is accomplished by a plea of guilty, and is recognized by the statute. In effect, an operator is given a second opportunity to perform his obligation and avoid the penalty of a breach. This hardly seems invidious.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage · from the dissent“For the evil in the federal statute is not that it necessarily coerces guilty pleas and jury waivers but simply that it needlessly encourages them. A procedure need not he inherently coercive in order that it be held to impose an impermissible burden upon the assertion of a constitutional right.”
