In the early days of .05 laws in Vic you could be detained after a preliminary positive roadside breath test, then would be taken off for a real blood alcohol count, from a sample taken by a doctor.

There were some strange issues that arose, like could the plod force a doctor to take blood from a vein (any vein) that the suspect had the right to nominate?

I only know this coz as a kid our summer holiday house was full of medicos enjoying a sip and the mirth of the permutations this rigmarole could (and did) cause.

I don't smoke of course. I could not afford 80 cartons of smokes either

I think she missed a trick there as could have deducted matches and lighters as well.
