What are the conditions for entry into premises to require a driver to provide a preliminary test after a RTC involving injury?

• A. Consent.
• B. RTC involving injury and officer reasonably suspects injury.
• C. Property damage only.
• D. Premises within jurisdiction.

Answer: (B)

The key idea is that the power to require a driver to provide a preliminary test and, if needed, enter premises depends on two things being present: there has been a road traffic collision involving injury, and the officer reasonably suspects the driver is under the influence. When both conditions are met, the law allows the officer to compel a preliminary test to assess impairment and to enter premises if necessary to obtain or administer that test. If there’s only property damage or there’s no reasonable suspicion of impairment, no such power applies. The location of the premises isn’t the deciding factor—what matters is the accident involving injury and a reasonable belief that the driver is impaired.
