How do the Police test BAC? Breathalyzer Test, which determines the BAC based on the amount of alcohol on a driver’s breath. Can I refuse the Breathalyzer test? Refusal to take the test is equal to a BAC of .10 for the first offense… This penalty is so severe based on the Implied Consent Law.

Implied Consent Law… States that if you drive on NJ roadways, you agree to submit to a breath test given by police or hospital staff following an arrest for drinking and driving. If you refuse to take the breath test after such an arrest, the driver will be detained and brought to a hospital where the staff may draw blood to determine BAC.
