Residents in Platte County, Missouri will be facing some interesting changes if they get pulled over and suspected of driving under the influence. Police can now get a blood sample on site-- no warrant, no questions asked-- if they suspect a driver is operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs.
Platte County is the first county near the Kansas City Metro to see this new law become a reality. The Sheriff's Department, Missouri State Highway Patrol, and most cities in Platte County can now demand a blood test for those motorists who refuse a breathalizer test. The law has gone into effect as of July 1, 2011.
"For everyone who might think about drinking alcohol and then getting behind the wheel to know this, the days of being able to hide your guilt are over," said Zahnd.
