Operating While Intoxicated

\ This policy provides Department members with the guidelines for Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) investigations, documentation of evidence, and preparation of required paperwork for OWI arrests. This policy also includes key points from the Administrative Rules, set forth by the Michigan Department of State Police, regarding pertinent information for the Certified Preliminary and Evidentiary Breath (Alcohol) Testing instruments. Policy It is the policy of the Detroit Police Department (DPD) to actively seek out and remove impaired drivers from the streets of the city. These impaired drivers, whether due to alcohol, drugs or intoxicating substance(s), present a significant risk to both the safety of the public and themselves, and as such, cannot be tolerated. Definitions Administrative Rules The drunken driving statute has granted the Michigan Department of State Police mandatory rule-making power. An administrative rule promulgated under this authority carries the full weight of the law. The Administrative Rules regarding “Test for Breath Alcohol” set forth by the Department of Michigan State Police and filed with the Secretary of State on January 16th, 2018 have been utilized for this Department policy and shall be upheld by DPD. Alcohol Standard A certified alcohol standard. Class Operator For the purposes of this policy, a class operator is a Department member who has successfully completed the appropriate Department-approved training courses and received certification for the administration, verification, calibration, limited service, service, and/or repair of respective tests and/or testing instruments, including the Preliminary Breath Alcohol Test (PBT) and Evidential Breath (Alcohol) Test (DataMaster DMT). Detection Process The entire process of identifying and gathering evidence to determine whether or not a subject should be arrested for an OWI violation, which includes observations of both the vehicle and the operator as well as the administration of tests to determine impairment. DPD 631 (REV. 11-98) C of D-131-OR Equipment Evidential and preliminary breath test instruments, simulator devices, forms, and any accessories and supplies necessary for compliance with the procedures outlined in the Administrative Rules regarding “Test for Breath Alcohol” set forth by the Department of Michigan State Police and filed with the Secretary of State on January 16th, 2018. Evidential Breath (Alcohol) Test For the purposes of this policy, an evidential breath test refers to the breath test administered for the detection of alcohol through the use of the DataMaster DMT. Implied Consent A person who operates a vehicle upon a public highway or other place open to the general public or generally accessible to motor vehicles, including an area designated for the parking of vehicles, within this state is considered to have given consent to chemical tests of their blood, breath, or urine for the purpose of determining the amount of alcohol or presence of a controlled substance or other intoxicating substance or any combination of them. Operating While Intoxicated (OWI) The operation of vehicles by persons impaired and/or under the influence of alcohol and/or other drugs. Regarding an individual of legal drinking age, a bodily alcohol content of .08 or more (per 100 milliliters of blood, per 210 liters of breath, or per 67 milliliters of urine) is considered to be under the influence with the exception of specific circumstances (i.e., commercial drivers, operators carrying firearms, etc.), which may have different BAC standards. For the purposes of this policy “Operating Under the Influence” (OUI) and “Driving While Intoxicated” (DWI) will be considered synonymous with OWI. Preliminary Breath Alcohol Test (PBT) A pre-arrest breath test administered during the investigation of a possible OWI violator to obtain an indication of the person’s blood alcohol concentration through the use of a preliminary breath alcohol test instrument (PBT), which is a breath alcohol screening device that detects the presence or absence of alcohol in a person’s blood. Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFST) Roadside tests that can be used to determine whether a subject is impaired. These tests include the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus, Nine (9) Step Walk and Turn, and One Leg Stand. Detection Process

 1. Detection is fundamental to all alcohol, controlled substances, or other intoxicating     substance enforcement and is critical to the entire investigation. The detection process     refers identifying and gathering evidence to determine whether or not a subject should be     arrested for an OWI violation, which includes observations both of the vehicle and the     operator as well as the administration of tests to determine impairment, sometimes     referred to as pre-arrest screening. The following are examples of detection as it pertains     to an OWI investigation:     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     a. Vehicle in Motion – observing the vehicle in operation to note any initial cues of a     possible OWI violation and observations of the manner in which the operator     responds to the signal to stop, if there is reasonable suspicion to conduct a traffic stop.     Some observations while the vehicle is in motion can include but are not limited to     drifting; swerving; problems stopping; varying speed; driving without headlights; slow     or failure to respond to officer signals, etc.     b. Personal Contact – approaching, observing, and interviewing the operator of the     vehicle while they are still inside the vehicle to note any face to face indicators of     possible impairment. Some observations of the operator during personal contact can     include but are not limited to bloodshot eyes; slurred speech; unusual actions or     statements; the odor of intoxicants; alcohol containers; drug(s) and/or drug     paraphernalia, etc.     c. Pre-Arrest Screening – administering Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFSTs),     provided conditions allow for these tests to be administered safely, and the     Preliminary Breath Test (PBT) to confirm the chemical basis of the subject’s     impairment. This is the final step in the detection process regarding OWI.  2. The entire detection process culminates in the decision of whether or not to make an     arrest for OWI based upon probable cause. Officers should be mindful of their training     when conducting OWI investigations and be aware of situational conditions that could     change the course of the investigation (i.e. vehicle accident prior to observing vehicle in     motion; personal contact cues with subject attributed to a medical condition as opposed to     intoxication; roadway and/or traffic conditions creating an unsafe environment for the     administration of certain SFSTs, etc.).  3. If the situation allows, officers should ask the driver if they have any medical conditions or     if they are taking any prescribed medication that may cause impaired driving.     Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFST)  4. Field Sobriety Tests should be given to drivers prior to administering the preliminary     breath test to support the officer’s investigation, if the tests can be administered     safely. All results and observations shall be documented on the investigating officer’s     incident report. Standardized Field Sobriety Tests (SFST) provide valuable evidence     for prosecution, especially when the evidential breath test is refused or suppressed in     court. Field Sobriety Tests are subjective. If the subject being tested has formed a     tolerance for alcohol, they may be able to perform the tests well enough to pass.  5. Officers that are certified as Standardized Field Sobriety Test practitioners shall     administer the following mandatory tests as outlined in the Standard Field Sobriety     Test Manual:     a. Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus;     b. Nine (9) Step Walk and Turn; and     c. One Leg Stand.  6. Officers that are not certified as Standardized Field Sobriety Test practitioners     should request a certified Standardized Field Sobriety Test practitioner to their     location via dispatch. The officer’s SFST practitioner certification should be verified     once they make the location of the investigation, in these instances. If no certified     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     SFST practitioner is available, the officers conducting the investigation shall notify a     supervisor via dispatch and be guided by their instruction before continuing the     investigation.     Preliminary Breath Alcohol Test (PBT)     General  7. An officer who has reasonable cause to believe a person was operating a vehicle     under the influence of alcohol may require the subject to take a PBT after SFSTs have     been administered. If the investigating officer is not a certified PBT operator and/or     does not have a PBT instrument available, they shall notify dispatch to request a PBT     instrument be brought to the scene.  8. Given that PBT results are generally not admissible in court, unless certain legal     exceptions apply, the administration of a PBT is not mandatory during the course of     an OWI investigation. However, the PBT provides the information that alcohol is the     chemical basis of impairment by yielding a direct indication of the subject’s BAC level     and should be conducted if possible to strengthen the probable cause for an OWI     arrest.  9. Before administering a PBT, the officer must be aware of the following:     a. The PBT is not a substitute for proper investigative techniques and field sobriety tests     should still be conducted if possible.     b. PBT instruments shall be operated only by officers who are appropriate class     operators.     c. PBT instruments shall only be verified and calibrated by appropriate class operators.     d. PBT instruments shall only be repaired and serviced by appropriate class operators.     e. Respective operator class(es) for the aforementioned operator functions are specified     in the Administrative Rules regarding “Test for Breath Alcohol” set forth by the     Department of Michigan State Police and filed with the Secretary of State on January     16th     , 2018. All PBT instruments, operator functions, required recordkeeping,     and other operations associated with the Preliminary Breath Alcohol Test shall     be kept in compliance with these Administrative Rules.

  1. The commanding officer/officer in charge (OIC) of each precinct and/or Department     entity shall be responsible for the monthly calibration of any PBT instruments kept for     Departmental use within their command to have PBT equipment accuracy verified.
  2. Monthly calibrations must be completed by the 10th of each calendar month. PBT     instruments shall be taken to Metro Division to be verified by a qualified, designated     member of the Traffic Enforcement Unit (TEU). All calibrations must be documented     on the TD-053 form (“Preliminary Breath Test Instrument Calibration and Maintenance     Log”). The Traffic Enforcement Unit shall be responsible for retaining copies of     completed Preliminary Breath Test Instrument Calibration and Maintenance Logs.
  3. Only Department-approved PBT instruments shall be used by trained/qualified     officers. Officers who have purchased their own PBT instruments must have that     instrument approved and calibrated by a qualified, designated member of TEU prior to     using it during the course of Department investigations and duties.     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     PBT Rights     Before giving the PBT, the field sobriety tests shall be given to the driver (if safe to do so),     and they shall be advised of the PBT rights.     Standard PBT Rights     A person who refuses to submit to a preliminary chemical breath analysis upon a lawful     request by a peace officer is responsible for a civil infraction. MCL 257.625a (2) (d) except as     provided in subsections (4) and (5), which address person(s) operating a commercial motor     vehicle.     Commercial Driver PBT Rights     A person who was operating a commercial motor vehicle and who is requested to submit to a     preliminary chemical breath analysis under this section shall be advised that refusing a peace     officer's request to take a test described in this section is a misdemeanor punishable by     imprisonment for not more than 93 days or a fine of not more than $100.00, or both, and will     result in the issuance of a 24-hour out-of-service order. MCL 257.625a (4) and (5).     Administering the PBT     Before administering a PBT, the officer must be aware of the following:     a. It must be determined that the subject has not smoked, regurgitated, or placed     anything in their mouth for at least fifteen (15) minutes prior to the test. Also check     to ensure there are no signs of injury or blood in the subject’s mouth. This fifteen     (15) minute period ensures the results will not be affected by any residual mouth     alcohol that could possibly be left in the subject’s mouth; and     b. Make sure the subject expels all of the air from the lungs and takes the breath     sample from the deep lung air to get the most accurate results. The subject     should exhale at least five (5) to six (6) seconds to force out the deep lung air.     Interpretation of Preliminary Breath Test Results
  4. If the PBT test is conducted and the test indicates .08 or above, the subject may be     charged with Operating While Intoxicated (OWI), and they shall be arrested and     conveyed to the Detroit Detention Center (DDC) for an evidential breath alcohol test.
  5. If evidence of impairment (i.e. emotional instability, slurred speech, loss of balance,     etc.) exists, whether or not the PBT is conducted, the subject shall be conveyed to the     DDC and processed in accordance with standard breath alcohol procedures. If the     blood alcohol level of a subject is .25 or higher, hospitalization shall be mandatory.
  6. If an officer detects great impairment and the subject’s PBT test indicates .08 or     below, the officer shall convey the subject to the DDC for an evidential breath alcohol     test. If the evidential breath alcohol test also indicates .08 percent or less, the officer     must consider the possibility of narcotics or the possibility that the subject is suffering     from some illness. Members may request, through Communications Section, a Drug     Recognition Expert (DRE) to the scene if one is available.
  7. If after administration of the field sobriety test and the PBT, it is the opinion of the     investigating officer that the subject may not be under the influence of intoxicating     liquor or other narcotics including prescription drugs, these conclusions shall be noted     and the subject may be charged with other applicable offenses (i.e. reckless or     careless driving).     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     Evidential Breath (Alcohol) Test (DataMaster DMT)     General
  8. An officer who has arrested a subject for the charge of OWI based upon probable     cause will subsequently transport the subject to the DDC where an evidential breath     test may be administered, provided that the subject does not first require medical     attention. Prior to the subject’s transport to the DDC, the arresting officer(s) shall     notify the dispatcher that a DataMaster class operator will be needed at the DDC for     the evidential breath test.
  9. The arresting officer(s) of the OWI subject shall administer SFSTs and/or PBT to the     subject prior to an evidential breath (alcohol) test (DataMaster DMT) at the DDC, if     circumstances allow (safety considerations for SFSTs, PBT subject refusal, etc.).     The arresting officer(s) must be able to articulate the totality of the circumstances     regarding an OWI arrest if the arrestee refuses both the SFSTs and the PBT.
  10. Before administering an evidential breath test, officer(s) must be aware of the     following:     a. The evidential breath test is not a substitute for proper investigative techniques     and field sobriety tests, as well as PBT, should still be conducted if possible;     b. The DataMaster DMT shall only be operated by appropriate class operators;     c. The DataMaster DMT shall only be verified by appropriate class operators;     d. The DataMaster DMT shall only have limited service, service, or repairs     conducted by appropriate class operators; and     e. Respective operator class(es) for the aforementioned operator functions are     specified in the Administrative Rules regarding “Test for Breath Alcohol” set forth     by the Department of Michigan State Police and filed with the Secretary of State     on January 16th     , 2018. All evidential breath alcohol test instruments,     equipment, operator functions, required recordkeeping, and other     operations associated with the Evidential Breath Test shall be kept in     compliance with these Administrative Rules.     Equipment Accuracy and Malfunction
  11. To retain state certification, the Michigan Department of State Police (MSP) require     the evidential breath testing instrument be verified at least once per calendar week     (Sunday - Saturday). The accuracy check for the DataMaster DMT is automatic.     Refer to the DataMaster DMT Evidential Breath Testing Training Manual and the     Administrative Rules.
  12. For the purposes of this policy, the Detroit Detention Center shall be the recordkeeping entity for the DataMaster DMT within the Detroit Police Department and     ultimately bears the responsibility of said record-keeping. The Commanding Officer of     the DDC may assign a member to serve as the designated individual responsible for     record-keeping regarding the DataMaster DMT (record-keeper).
  13. The designated record-keeper for the DataMaster DMT is responsible for ensuring     that that DataMaster DMT is operational in accordance with the DataMaster DMT     Evidential Breath Testing Training Manual (2018) or any updated version of this     manual, as well as the Administrative Rules.
  14. The designated record-keeper for the DataMaster DMT is responsible for any and     all record-keeping associated with the DataMaster DMT, including but not limited to     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     Evidential Breath Testing Log(s) (OD-33) and Accuracy/Subject Test(s) (OD-80), and     sending these records or record copies to 36th District Court, which does include     transportation of records by a court officer.
  15. Any certified operator intending to utilize the DataMaster DMT during the course of     an OWI investigation, shall verify that the DataMaster DMT is operable with the     Officer in Charge of the DDC, prior to use with an OWI subject.
  16. In the event of a DataMaster DMT malfunction – when the DataMaster DMT reads     “Out of Service” - the designated record-keeper for the DataMaster DMT is     responsible for sending a copy of the OD-80 Accuracy Check Test showing the error     displayed to MSP-alcoholunit@michigan.gov on the same day the instrument shows     the error.
  17. The Detroit Detention Center shall be responsible for having a minimum of one     available copy of the most recent and accurate edition of the DataMaster DMT     Evidential Breath Testing Training Manual and Administrative Rules for accessibility     and/or reference by officer(s)/certified operator(s) at the Detroit Detention Center.     Use of Evidential Breath (Alcohol) Test (DataMaster DMT) by Certified Operators     from Other Departments     Persons may be tested by outside authorities on Department-assigned equipment. Any state     of Michigan certified operator is authorized to operate the DataMaster DMT. It is the     responsibility of the OIC of the DDC’s desk to check the state certification card of the certified     operator.     Evidential Breath (DataMaster DMT) Testing Procedures
  18. Prior to entering the DDC, the arresting/conveying officers shall notify the OIC, informing     them they have an OWI arrest. The arresting/conveying officers will then bring the OWI     subject to the room designated for DataMaster DMT usage to begin the fifteen (15)     minute observation period of the subject. During this observation period, it must be     determined that the subject has not smoked, regurgitated, or placed anything in their     mouth for at least fifteen (15) minutes prior to the test. Also check to ensure there are no     signs of injury or blood in the subject’s mouth. This fifteen (15) minute period ensures the     results will not be affected by any residual mouth alcohol that could possibly be left in the     subject’s mouth.
  19. The certified breath test operator shall be present while the arresting officer reads the     Advice of Rights for a Chemical Test (DI-93) to the subject, from the reverse side of the     Officer’s Report of Refusal to Submit to Chemical Test (DI-93) or the Breath, Blood, Urine     Test Report (DI-177). These forms are available at the Detroit Detention Center.
  20. The administrative rules promulgated by the Michigan Department of State Police state     that after the first breath test, certified operators shall offer the subject a second breath     test. However, members shall keep in mind that a subject’s refusal to take a     second breath test does not constitute a refusal nor invoke implied consent     proceedings. Additionally, a new testing tube must be used after obtaining individual,     successful breath samples to ensure accuracy of test results.
  21. The arresting officer and the certified operator shall complete their portion of the Breath,     Blood, Urine Test Report (DI-177) or the Refusal to Submit to a Chemical Test (DI-93)     forms. (Reference: Michigan Datamaster DMT Evidential Breath Testing Training Manual     2018 for instructions on completing the form).     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR
  22. Once the subject has submitted to the chemical test(s), the operator shall inquire if they     wish to seek an independent chemical test to challenge the results obtained at their own     expense.
  23. At the conclusion of the evidential breath test, the results of the test and the investigation     information gathered by the arresting officer and certified operator shall be given to the     OIC of the DDC’s desk and the supervisor who makes a determination as to what charge     should be brought against the subject.     Refusals for Evidential Breath (Alcohol) Test – (DataMaster DMT)
  24. If the subject refuses to submit to a breath alcohol test, the test shall not be given     without a court order. The arresting officer shall complete the Michigan Department     of State (DI-93), Officer’s Report of Refusal to Submit to a Chemical Test.     (Reference: Michigan Breath Test Operator Training Manual 2018 for instructions on     completing Chemical Tests).
  25. It should be noted that if a subject requests to have a urine or blood test as opposed     to an evidential breath (alcohol) test, this does not constitute a refusal of the chemical     test, given that all three methods are encompassed within the chemical test.
  26. The certified operator’s name shall not be placed on the chemical test except when     the subject refuses to take the breath test after initially agreeing to take it, or when     the subject refuses to give an adequate sample. The signature of the arresting officer     shall be placed on each chemical test submitted.
  27. Members shall bear in mind that if they are notified to appear at an implied consent     or appeal board hearing and fail to do so, the board must restore the driver’s license     to the subject. If a member is unable to appear on a scheduled date and time, the     member must notify the board chairperson as well as the OIC of the member’s     command.
  28. Only two (2) types of refusals may result after a subject has been read the Advice of     Rights which is located on the back of the Breath, Blood, Urine Test Report (DI-177)     or Advice of Rights for a Chemical Test (DI-93) forms and has agreed to provide a     breath alcohol test, but does not provide an appropriate breath sample into the     DataMaster DMT.     a. Operator Refusal (Two [2] Minute Limit on the DataMaster DMT) - An operator     refusal occurs when the certified operator decides that a subject is not making a     sincere effort to provide a breath sample.     b. Technical Refusal (Five [5] Attempts to Blow within Two [2] Minutes) - A technical     refusal results when the instrument indicates that a subject is not making a     sincere effort to provide a breath sample.
  29. At this point, the subject shall be advised that the failure to comply with instructions     indicates a refusal to take the required test and that the Secretary of State will     suspend the subject’s privilege of driving for a period in compliance with current     Michigan Compiled Laws (MCL) and that six (6) points will be added to the subject’s     driving record.     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     Chemical Tests as Evidence
  30. It is recommended that a subject who exhibits great impairment, but whose breath alcohol     test indicates less than .08, be conveyed to the closest authorized medical facility. A     blood sample kit shall be conveyed with the subject and a blood sample shall be     requested.
  31. A driver or pedestrian who has been involved in an accident and is hospitalized may be     compelled by a court order to give a blood sample. When applicable, officer(s) shall read     the subject their chemical test rights from the Advice of Rights for a Chemical Test (DI93/DI-177).
  32. The subject shall be advised that refusal to take a chemical test requested by a peace     officer shall result in a suspension of the subject’s license and the addition of six (6) points     to the subject’s driving record. If the subject refuses to submit to a blood test, the arresting     officer may request a warrant using the following procedures:     a. Complete an affidavit for a search warrant for blood;     b. Call Communications Section and request a conference call with the city prosecutor     for the warrant approval; and     c. Once the prosecutor approves the warrant, the arresting member shall contact     Communications Section again and request a conference call with the magistrate to     request them to sign off on the warrant.
  33. Once the blood sample is obtained, the container shall be sealed in the presence of     qualified medical personnel and the subject. Once the subject has submitted to the     chemical test(s), the certified operator shall advise the subject of their right to seek or     demand an independent chemical test (breath, blood, or urine) to challenge the results     obtained. The subject will be responsible for obtaining a chemical analysis of a test     sample taken by the independent entity of their choosing at the subject’s own expense.
  34. The officer shall convey the sample kit to the DDC with the completed Alcohol and Drug     Determination form (FSD-93). (Details for processing the blood sample kit are included     on the instruction sheet in the kit). The sample kit shall then be mailed to the Michigan     State Police, Toxicology Unit, Lansing Laboratory.
  35. The amount of alcohol or the presence of narcotics in the driver’s blood at the time     alleged as shown by chemical analysis of the person’s blood, urine, or breath shall be     admissible as evidence.     Preparation/Documentation Required for OWI Court Case Jackets     Documentation of “Interview” Questions
  36. Each of the following interview questions with the subject’s answers shall be     documented in “question and answer” format in the narrative section of the incident     report:     a. “Were you operating the vehicle?”     b. “Where did you start from and where were you going?”     c. “Have you been drinking and if so, what were you drinking?”     d. “How much have you been drinking?”     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     e. “Do you have diabetes and if so, are you taking insulin?” and     f. “Are you injured?”
  37. Additionally, members shall document their observations of the subject in the incident     report (i.e. breath [odor of alcohol], speech, eyes, attitude and any unusual     actions/behavior). The incident report shall also include:     a. PBT results;     b. Whether the subject refused or complied to the PBT test;     c. The SFST that were given and the results;     d. DataMaster DMT results;     e. Whether the subject refused or complied to the DataMaster DMT test;     f. If blood was drawn (document the name of the person who drew the blood and     the hospital’s name);     g. Record sequence numbers provided from LEIN on the (DI-177) or (DI-93);     h. If this is a second offense, document the previous conviction date;     i. The location where the vehicle was impounded and the LEIN reference number;     j. Any citations(s) issued; and     k. The UD-10 number (if applicable).     Documentation Required for 36th District Court Jacket
  38. After the incident report has been submitted and approved, the following shall be included     in the 36th District Court jacket, using the Court Case Envelope (DPD 532):     a. Two (2) copies of the incident report;     b. The original (DI-177) or (DI-93) and the DataMaster DMT Result Ticket;     c. Complete Certified Driving History (42-C) (obtained from LEIN);     d. Vehicle registration print-out (Signed by the LEIN operator);     e. UD-10 (if applicable);     f. Two (2) copies of the Search Warrant (if applicable);     g. Two (2) copies of the Alcohol and Drug Determination form included with the blood     sample kit box; and     h. Two (2) copies of the subject’s Complete Criminal History (CCH) (obtained by DDC     personnel).
  39. All traffic charges, including OWI, related to the subject’s arrest should be listed on the     portion of the Court Case Envelope meant for the display of this information. Completed     Court Case Envelopes shall be turned into the designated area of the DDC and     subsequently collected by a court officer, unless the circumstances of the arrest require     the Court Case Envelope to be delivered to Fatal Squad.     Other OWI Procedures     Pedestrians Taking a Breath Test     When the sobriety of a pedestrian involved in an accident is questionable, the pedestrian     may be requested to take a breath alcohol test if it will aid in the investigation of the case.     Civil penalties apply for a refusal of these tests.     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     Alcohol Tests for Hospital Cases     A driver or pedestrian who has been involved in an accident and is hospitalized may be     compelled by a court order to give a blood sample.     Open Intoxicants in Motor Vehicles     Per MCL 257.624a, “[A] person who is an operator or occupant shall not transport or possess     alcoholic liquor in a container that is open or uncapped or upon which the seal is broken     within the passenger area of a vehicle upon a highway, or within the passenger area of a     moving vehicle in any place open to the general public or generally accessible to motor     vehicle, including an area designated for the parking of vehicles, in this state.”     Lost Temporary Driver Permit
  40. An individual who was previously issued a temporary driver permit subsequent to an     OWI arrest may apply for replacement of a lost temporary driving permit at the DDC.     Officers shall utilize information from the original Breath, Blood, Urine Test Report     (DI-177) or Chemical Test form (DI-93) filed in the Court Case Envelope (DPD 532)     to complete the replacement permit.
  41. A query shall be made of the individual’s Secretary of State driving record to     determine license eligibility. A Breath, Blood, Urine Report, (DI-177), shall be     completed as a replacement temporary driver permit, if applicable. The issuing     officer shall sign the Breath, Blood, Urine Test Report (DI-177) and indicate     “Replacement for Lost Permit” next to their signature. The individual shall be given     page three (3) as the temporary driving permit. Page one (1) of the form shall be     placed in the Court Case Envelope (DPD 532) along with the original arrest     paperwork. Page two (2) is not required and may be destroyed.     Under 21 OWI Arrests/Violations
  42. Per MCL 257.625 (6), “A person who is less than 21 years of age, whether     licensed or not, shall not operate a vehicle upon a highway or other place open to     the general public or generally accessible to motor vehicle, including an area     designated for the parking of vehicles, within this state if the person has any     bodily alcohol content.”     a. Officers should refer to the aforementioned MCL (257.625) in its entirety     regarding definitions and other legal specifications.     b. [T]he minor may be arrested if their bodily alcohol content is at or above     0.02%, even if the consumption of intoxicating liquor was part of a generally     recognized religious service or ceremony.
  43. An officer who has reasonable cause to believe a person less than twenty-one     (21) years of age has consumed alcoholic liquor, and is not operating a motor     vehicle may request the person to submit to a PBT. Civil penalties apply for a     refusal of these tests.
  44. The “implied consent” law applies to both juveniles and adults. If a juvenile is     taken into custody for OWI, they may lawfully be requested to submit to a     chemical test, and the results are admissible in court.     DPD 631 (REV. 11-98)     C of D-131-OR     a. The juvenile shall be given the opportunity to consult an attorney or other     adult, if requested before deciding to take the test.     b. Since juveniles may not have the same access to attorneys as adults do, their     parent/guardian would qualify as the person with whom the juveniles may     consult prior to testing.
  45. For further enforcement procedures, refer to Department Manual Directive 203.5,     Juveniles and School Incidents.     Updates to the Department Manual are forthcoming.     JAMES E. WHITE
