Anyone who refuses a blood test, even if not convicted or formally accused of a crime, will surrender his license to drive on the spot and will not see it again for at least six months.

This paragraph must contain an error.

I don't think that in America it's legal to punish people for not committing a crime.

Or maybe this is what the "war on [some] drugs" has done to our state and federal constitutions.

"I don't think that in America it's legal to punish people for not committing a crime."

They skirt around that by calling these "administrative proceedings." They aren't depriving people of life, liberty, or property, only a privilege that Mother Government giveth and Mother Government can taketh away.
