Fifth on the Fourth

If you insist...drinking and driving got a little less complicated for lawmen in Platte County.  In the past if you got nabbed for DUI you could refuse a breathalizer.  If you refuse, a new MO State law allows the arresting officer to have your blood alcohol drawn...without obtaining a warrant.  Bottom line, one way or the other, driving DUI, or appearing DUI will get you tested.
