Sample question from test 1

A Massachusetts police officer stops a driver whose BAC is above the legal limit, or who refuses a breathalyzer or blood test. What must the officer do with the license?
- Issue a warning and return it
- Hold it for 24 hours only
- Take the license away
- Mail it to the RMV for review
Answer: Take the license away. Massachusetts pairs the breath test with an immediate, on the spot consequence. When the result is over the legal limit, or when the driver refuses a breath or blood test, the officer is required to take the license then and there. A warning is not among the options, a 24 hour hold is not how the law is written, and the officer does not simply forward the card for later review. The suspension that follows a refusal is separate from, and added to, any court penalty for the OUI charge itself.
