technical correction; DUI; blood test
This bill corrects a technical error in Arizona Revised Statutes Section 28-1326 regarding the rules for blood alcohol testing. It clarifies that the Department of Public Safety director must approve testing methods and issue permits to analysts who can accurately measure blood alcohol levels. The amendment also specifies that the director may revoke an analyst's permit if they fail to follow established testing rules or demonstrate an inability to perform accurate analyses. This change directly affects the state's regulatory framework for forensic blood testing and the certification of laboratory analysts.
