To: yer gonna put yer eye out
It's hard to understand people who can't give up their need to be in control of everything around them for 10 minutes when stopped by the police.

There is no way in hell I would ever let a cop draw blood from me, let alone on a roadside. If a blood test is mandatory, and I don't feel like getting tased, I would agree to go to a clinic or something and have a professional do it.

Sorry, I don't believe for a minute that the police wanted to draw this woman's blood.
The poster here, in my opinion, has an agenda related to this story....he/she just hasn't stated it.

That's understandable. The officer told the woman that she could either submit to a 'chemical' test or go to jail. Personally, if it reached that point (which is doubtful because I don't drive, ever, if I've been drinking), I'd choose jail. At that point, you're in a position to contest the detention and any potential charges. When you become argumentative and combative with police officers on tape, you're creating your own problems.
