12 amended to read:
13 316.1932 Breath, blood, and urine tests for alcohol,
14 chemical substances, or controlled substances; implied
15 consent; refusal right to refuse.--
16 (1)(a) Any person who accepts the privilege extended
17 by the laws of this state of operating a motor vehicle within
18 this state is, by so operating such vehicle, deemed to have
19 given his or her consent to submit to an approved chemical
20 test or physical test including, but not limited to, an
21 infrared light test of his or her breath for the purpose of
22 determining the alcoholic content of his or her blood or
23 breath, and to a urine test for the purpose of detecting the
24 presence of chemical substances as set forth in s. 877.111 or
25 controlled substances, if the person is lawfully arrested for
26 any offense allegedly committed while the person was driving
27 or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while
28 under the influence of alcoholic beverages, chemical
29 substances, or controlled substances. The chemical or
30 physical breath test must be incidental to a lawful arrest and
31 administered at the request of a law enforcement officer who
6
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 has reasonable cause to believe such person was driving or was
2 in actual physical control of the motor vehicle within this
3 state while under the influence of alcoholic beverages. The
4 urine test must be incidental to a lawful arrest and
5 administered at a detention facility or any other facility,
6 mobile or otherwise, which is equipped to administer such
7 tests at the request of a law enforcement officer who has
8 reasonable cause to believe such person was driving or was in
9 actual physical control of a motor vehicle within this state
10 while under the influence of controlled substances. The urine
11 test shall be administered at a detention facility or any
12 other facility, mobile or otherwise, which is equipped to
13 administer such tests in a reasonable manner that will ensure
14 the accuracy of the specimen and maintain the privacy of the
15 individual involved. The administration of one type of test
16 does not preclude the administration of another type of test.
17 The person shall be told that his or her failure to submit to
18 any lawful test of his or her breath or urine, or both, is a
19 misdemeanor and, in addition, will result in the suspension of
20 the person's privilege to operate a motor vehicle for a period
21 of 1 year for a first refusal, or for a period of 18 months if
22 the driving privilege of such person has been previously
23 suspended as a result of a refusal to submit to such a test or
24 tests. The refusal to submit to a chemical or physical breath
25 test or to a urine test upon the request of a law enforcement
26 officer as provided in this section is admissible into
27 evidence in any criminal proceeding.
28 (b)1. The blood-alcohol level must be based upon grams
29 of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood. The breath-alcohol
30 level must be based upon grams of alcohol per 210 liters of
31 breath.

CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 2. An analysis of a person's breath, in order to be
2 considered valid under this section, must have been performed
3 substantially according to methods approved by the Department
4 of Law Enforcement. For this purpose, the department may
5 approve satisfactory techniques or methods. Any insubstantial
6 differences between approved techniques and actual testing
7 procedures in any individual case do not render the test or
8 test results invalid.
9 (c) Any person who accepts the privilege extended by
10 the laws of this state of operating a motor vehicle within
11 this state is, by operating such vehicle, deemed to have given
12 his or her consent to submit to an approved blood test for the
13 purpose of determining the alcoholic content of the blood or a
14 blood test for the purpose of determining the presence of
15 chemical substances or controlled substances as provided in
16 this section if there is reasonable cause to believe the
17 person was driving or in actual physical control of a motor
18 vehicle while under the influence of alcoholic beverages or
19 chemical or controlled substances and the person appears for
20 treatment at a hospital, clinic, or other medical facility and
21 the administration of a breath or urine test is impractical or
22 impossible. As used in this paragraph, the term "other medical
23 facility" includes an ambulance or other medical emergency
24 vehicle. The blood test shall be performed in a reasonable
25 manner. Any person who is incapable of refusal by reason of
26 unconsciousness or other mental or physical condition is
27 deemed not to have withdrawn his or her consent to such test.
28 A blood test may be administered whether or not the person is
29 told that his or her failure to submit to such a blood test is
30 a misdemeanor and, in addition, will result in the suspension
31 of the person's privilege to operate a motor vehicle upon the
8
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 public highways of this state. Any person who is capable of
2 refusal shall be told that his or her failure to submit to
3 such a blood test is a misdemeanor and, in addition, will
4 result in the suspension of the person's privilege to operate
5 a motor vehicle for a period of 1 year for a first refusal, or
6 for a period of 18 months if the driving privilege of the
7 person has been suspended previously as a result of a refusal
8 to submit to such a test or tests. The refusal to submit to a
9 blood test upon the request of a law enforcement officer is
10 admissible in evidence in any criminal proceeding.
11 (d) If the arresting officer does not request a
12 chemical or physical breath test of the person arrested for
13 any offense allegedly committed while the person was driving
14 or was in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while
15 under the influence of alcoholic beverages or controlled
16 substances, such person may request the arresting officer to
17 have a chemical or physical test made of the arrested person's
18 breath or a test of the urine or blood for the purpose of
19 determining the alcoholic content of the person's blood or
20 breath or the presence of chemical substances or controlled
21 substances; and, if so requested, the arresting officer shall
22 have the test performed.
23 (e)1. By applying for a driver's license and by
24 accepting and using a driver's license, the person holding the
25 driver's license is deemed to have expressed his or her
26 consent to the provisions of this section.
27 2. A nonresident or any other person driving in a
28 status exempt from the requirements of the driver's license
29 law, by his or her act of driving in such exempt status, is
30 deemed to have expressed his or her consent to the provisions
31 of this section.

CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 3. A warning of the consent provision of this section
2 shall be printed above the signature line on each new or
3 renewed driver's license.
4 (f)1. The tests determining the weight of alcohol in
5 the defendant's blood or breath shall be administered at the
6 request of a law enforcement officer substantially in
7 accordance with rules of the Department of Law Enforcement.
8 Such rules must specify precisely the test or tests that are
9 approved by the Department of Law Enforcement for reliability
10 of result and ease of administration, and must provide an
11 approved method of administration which must be followed in
12 all such tests given under this section. However, the failure
13 of a law enforcement officer to request the withdrawal of
14 blood does not affect the admissibility of a test of blood
15 withdrawn for medical purposes.
16 2.a. Only a physician, certified paramedic, registered
17 nurse, licensed practical nurse, other personnel authorized by
18 a hospital to draw blood, or duly licensed clinical laboratory
19 director, supervisor, technologist, or technician, acting at
20 the request of a law enforcement officer, may withdraw blood
21 for the purpose of determining its alcoholic content or the
22 presence of chemical substances or controlled substances
23 therein. However, the failure of a law enforcement officer to
24 request the withdrawal of blood does not affect the
25 admissibility of a test of blood withdrawn for medical
26 purposes.
27 b. Notwithstanding any provision of law pertaining to
28 the confidentiality of hospital records or other medical
29 records, if a health care provider, who is providing medical
30 care in a health care facility to a person injured in a motor
31 vehicle crash, becomes aware, as a result of any blood test
10
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 performed in the course of that medical treatment, that the
2 person's blood-alcohol level meets or exceeds the
3 blood-alcohol level specified in s. 316.193(1)(b), the health
4 care provider may notify any law enforcement officer or law
5 enforcement agency. Any such notice must be given within a
6 reasonable time after the health care provider receives the
7 test result. Any such notice shall be used only for the
8 purpose of providing the law enforcement officer with
9 reasonable cause to request the withdrawal of a blood sample
10 pursuant to this section.
11 c. The notice shall consist only of the name of the
12 person being treated, the name of the person who drew the
13 blood, the blood-alcohol level indicated by the test, and the
14 date and time of the administration of the test.
15 d. Nothing contained in s. 395.3025(4), s. 455.667, or
16 any applicable practice act affects the authority to provide
17 notice under this section, and the health care provider is not
18 considered to have breached any duty owed to the person under
19 s. 395.3025(4), s. 455.667, or any applicable practice act by
20 providing notice or failing to provide notice. It shall not be
21 a breach of any ethical, moral, or legal duty for a health
22 care provider to provide notice or fail to provide notice.
23 e. A civil, criminal, or administrative action may not
24 be brought against any person or health care provider
25 participating in good faith in the provision of notice or
26 failure to provide notice as provided in this section. Any
27 person or health care provider participating in the provision
28 of notice or failure to provide notice as provided in this
29 section shall be immune from any civil or criminal liability
30 and from any professional disciplinary action with respect to
31 the provision of notice or failure to provide notice under
11
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 this section. Any such participant has the same immunity with
2 respect to participating in any judicial proceedings resulting
3 from the notice or failure to provide notice.
4 3. The person tested may, at his or her own expense,
5 have a physician, registered nurse, other personnel authorized
6 by a hospital to draw blood, or duly licensed clinical
7 laboratory director, supervisor, technologist, or technician,
8 or other person of his or her own choosing administer an
9 independent test in addition to the test administered at the
10 direction of the law enforcement officer for the purpose of
11 determining the amount of alcohol in the person's blood or
12 breath or the presence of chemical substances or controlled
13 substances at the time alleged, as shown by chemical analysis
14 of his or her blood or urine, or by chemical or physical test
15 of his or her breath. The failure or inability to obtain an
16 independent test by a person does not preclude the
17 admissibility in evidence of the test taken at the direction
18 of the law enforcement officer. The law enforcement officer
19 shall not interfere with the person's opportunity to obtain
20 the independent test and shall provide the person with timely
21 telephone access to secure the test, but the burden is on the
22 person to arrange and secure the test at the person's own
23 expense.
24 4. Upon the request of the person tested, full
25 information concerning the test taken at the direction of the
26 law enforcement officer shall be made available to the person
27 or his or her attorney.
28 5. A hospital, clinical laboratory, medical clinic, or
29 similar medical institution or physician, certified paramedic,
30 registered nurse, licensed practical nurse, other personnel

1 clinical laboratory director, supervisor, technologist, or
2 technician, or other person assisting a law enforcement
3 officer does not incur any civil or criminal liability as a
4 result of the withdrawal or analysis of a blood or urine
5 specimen, or the chemical or physical test of a person's
6 breath pursuant to accepted medical standards when requested
7 by a law enforcement officer, regardless of whether or not the
8 subject resisted administration of the test.
9 (2) The results of any test administered pursuant to
10 this section for the purpose of detecting the presence of any
11 controlled substance shall not be admissible as evidence in a
12 criminal prosecution for the possession of a controlled
13 substance.
14 (3) Notwithstanding any provision of law pertaining to
15 the confidentiality of hospital records or other medical
16 records, information relating to the alcoholic content of the
17 blood or breath or the presence of chemical substances or
18 controlled substances in the blood obtained pursuant to this
19 section shall be released to a court, prosecuting attorney,
20 defense attorney, or law enforcement officer in connection
21 with an alleged violation of s. 316.193 upon request for such
22 information.
23 Section 3. Subsection (1) of section 316.1933, Florida
24 Statutes, is amended to read:

1 that a motor vehicle driven by or in the actual physical
2 control of a person under the influence of alcoholic
3 beverages, any chemical substances, or any controlled
4 substances has caused the death or serious bodily injury of a
5 human being, such person shall submit, upon the request of a
6 law enforcement officer shall require the person driving or in
7 actual physical control of the motor vehicle to submit, to a
8 test of the person's blood for the purpose of determining the
9 alcoholic content thereof or the presence of chemical
10 substances as set forth in s. 877.111 or any substance
11 controlled under chapter 893. The law enforcement officer may
12 use reasonable force if necessary to require such person to
13 submit to the administration of the blood test. The blood
14 test shall be performed in a reasonable manner.
15 Notwithstanding s. 316.1932, the testing required by this
16 paragraph need not be incidental to a lawful arrest of the
17 person.
18 (b) The term "serious bodily injury" means an injury
19 to any person, including the driver, which consists of a
20 physical condition that creates a substantial risk of death,
21 serious personal disfigurement, or protracted loss or

23 (c) The law enforcement officer shall offer any person
24 subject to a blood test under this subsection the opportunity
25 to submit to an approved chemical test of the person's breath
26 and, if the person submits to the test and a valid reading is
27 obtained, the blood test shall be waived. This paragraph
28 shall not apply to any person who is unconscious or whose
29 mental or physical condition does not allow the administration
30 of a breath test or any person whom the law enforcement
31 officer has probable cause to believe was operating a motor

16 Section 6. Section 327.352, Florida Statutes, is
17 amended to read:
18 327.352 Breath, blood, and urine tests for alcohol,
19 chemical substances, or controlled substances; implied
20 consent; refusal right to refuse.--
21 (1)(a) The Legislature declares that the operation of
22 a vessel is a privilege that must be exercised in a reasonable
23 manner. In order to protect the public health and safety, it
24 is essential that a lawful and effective means of reducing the
25 incidence of boating while impaired or intoxicated be
26 established. Therefore, any person who accepts the privilege
27 extended by the laws of this state of operating a vessel
28 within this state is, by so operating such vessel, deemed to
29 have given his or her consent to submit to an approved
30 chemical test or physical test including, but not limited to,
31 an infrared light test of his or her breath for the purpose of
19
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 determining the alcoholic content of his or her blood or
2 breath, and to a urine test for the purpose of detecting the
3 presence of chemical substances as set forth in s. 877.111 or
4 controlled substances, if the person is lawfully arrested for
5 any offense allegedly committed while the person was operating
6 a vessel while under the influence of alcoholic beverages,
7 chemical substances, or controlled substances. The chemical
8 or physical breath test must be incidental to a lawful arrest
9 and administered at the request of a law enforcement officer
10 who has reasonable cause to believe such person was operating
11 the vessel within this state while under the influence of
12 alcoholic beverages. The urine test must be incidental to a
13 lawful arrest and administered at a detention facility or any
14 other facility, mobile or otherwise, which is equipped to
15 administer such tests at the request of a law enforcement
16 officer who has reasonable cause to believe such person was
17 operating a vessel within this state while under the influence
18 of controlled substances. The urine test shall be administered
19 at a detention facility or any other facility, mobile or
20 otherwise, which is equipped to administer such tests in a
21 reasonable manner that will ensure the accuracy of the
22 specimen and maintain the privacy of the individual involved.
23 The administration of one type of test does not preclude the
24 administration of another type of test. The person shall be
25 told that his or her failure to submit to any lawful test of
26 his or her breath or urine, or both, is a misdemeanor and, in
27 addition, will result in a civil penalty of $500. The refusal
28 to submit to a chemical or physical breath or urine test upon
29 the request of a law enforcement officer as provided in this
30 section is admissible into evidence in any criminal
31 proceeding.
20
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 (b)1. The blood-alcohol level must be based upon grams
2 of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood. The breath-alcohol
3 level must be based upon grams of alcohol per 210 liters of
4 breath.
5 2. An analysis of a person's breath, in order to be
6 considered valid under this section, must have been performed
7 substantially according to methods approved by the Department
8 of Law Enforcement. For this purpose, the department may
9 approve satisfactory techniques or methods. Any insubstantial
10 differences between approved techniques and actual testing
11 procedures in any individual case do not render the test or
12 test results invalid.
13 (c) Any person who accepts the privilege extended by
14 the laws of this state of operating a vessel within this state
15 is, by operating such vessel, deemed to have given his or her
16 consent to submit to an approved blood test for the purpose of
17 determining the alcoholic content of the blood or a blood test
18 for the purpose of determining the presence of chemical
19 substances or controlled substances as provided in this
20 section if there is reasonable cause to believe the person was
21 operating a vessel while under the influence of alcoholic
22 beverages or chemical or controlled substances and the person
23 appears for treatment at a hospital, clinic, or other medical
24 facility and the administration of a breath or urine test is
25 impractical or impossible. As used in this paragraph, the term
26 "other medical facility" includes an ambulance or other
27 medical emergency vehicle. The blood test shall be performed
28 in a reasonable manner. Any person who is incapable of
29 refusal by reason of unconsciousness or other mental or
30 physical condition is deemed not to have withdrawn his or her
31 consent to such test. Any person who is capable of refusal
21
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 shall be told that his or her failure to submit to such a
2 blood test is a misdemeanor and, in addition, will result in a
3 civil penalty of $500. The refusal to submit to a blood test
4 upon the request of a law enforcement officer shall be
5 admissible in evidence in any criminal proceeding.
6 (d) If the arresting officer does not request a
7 chemical or physical breath test of the person arrested for
8 any offense allegedly committed while the person was operating
9 a vessel while under the influence of alcoholic beverages or
10 controlled substances, the person may request the arresting
11 officer to have a chemical or physical test made of the
12 arrested person's breath or a test of the urine or blood for
13 the purpose of determining the alcoholic content of the
14 person's blood or breath or the presence of chemical
15 substances or controlled substances; and, if so requested, the
16 arresting officer shall have the test performed.
17 (e)1. The tests determining the weight of alcohol in
18 the defendant's blood or breath shall be administered at the
19 request of a law enforcement officer substantially in
20 accordance with rules of the Department of Law Enforcement.
21 Such rules must specify precisely the test or tests that are
22 approved by the Department of Law Enforcement for reliability
23 of result and ease of administration, and must provide an
24 approved method of administration which must be followed in
25 all such tests given under this section. However, the failure
26 of a law enforcement officer to request the withdrawal of
27 blood does not affect the admissibility of a test of blood
28 withdrawn for medical purposes.
29 2. Only a physician, certified paramedic, registered
30 nurse, licensed practical nurse, other personnel authorized by
31 a hospital to draw blood, or duly licensed clinical laboratory
22
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 director, supervisor, technologist, or technician, acting at
2 the request of a law enforcement officer, may withdraw blood
3 for the purpose of determining its alcoholic content or the
4 presence of chemical substances or controlled substances
5 therein. However, the failure of a law enforcement officer to
6 request the withdrawal of blood does not affect the
7 admissibility of a test of blood withdrawn for medical
8 purposes.
9 3. The person tested may, at his or her own expense,
10 have a physician, registered nurse, other personnel authorized
11 by a hospital to draw blood, or duly licensed clinical
12 laboratory director, supervisor, technologist, or technician,
13 or other person of his or her own choosing administer an
14 independent test in addition to the test administered at the
15 direction of the law enforcement officer for the purpose of
16 determining the amount of alcohol in the person's blood or
17 breath or the presence of chemical substances or controlled
18 substances at the time alleged, as shown by chemical analysis
19 of his or her blood or urine, or by chemical or physical test
20 of his or her breath. The failure or inability to obtain an
21 independent test by a person does not preclude the
22 admissibility in evidence of the test taken at the direction
23 of the law enforcement officer. The law enforcement officer
24 shall not interfere with the person's opportunity to obtain
25 the independent test and shall provide the person with timely
26 telephone access to secure the test, but the burden is on the
27 person to arrange and secure the test at the person's own
28 expense.
29 4. Upon the request of the person tested, full
30 information concerning the test taken at the direction of the
31
23
CODING: Words stricken are deletions; words underlined are additions.
CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 law enforcement officer shall be made available to the person
2 or his or her attorney.
3 5. A hospital, clinical laboratory, medical clinic, or
4 similar medical institution or physician, certified paramedic,
5 registered nurse, licensed practical nurse, other personnel
6 authorized by a hospital to draw blood, or duly licensed
7 clinical laboratory director, supervisor, technologist, or
8 technician, or other person assisting a law enforcement
9 officer does not incur any civil or criminal liability as a
10 result of the withdrawal or analysis of a blood or urine
11 specimen, or the chemical or physical test of a person's
12 breath pursuant to accepted medical standards when requested
13 by a law enforcement officer, regardless of whether or not the
14 subject resisted administration of the test.
15 (2) The results of any test administered pursuant to
16 this section for the purpose of detecting the presence of any
17 controlled substance shall not be admissible as evidence in a
18 criminal prosecution for the possession of a controlled
19 substance.
20 (3) Notwithstanding any provision of law pertaining to
21 the confidentiality of hospital records or other medical
22 records, information relating to the alcoholic content of the
23 blood or breath or the presence of chemical substances or
24 controlled substances in the blood obtained pursuant to this
25 section shall be released to a court, prosecuting attorney,
26 defense attorney, or law enforcement officer in connection
27 with an alleged violation of s. 327.35 upon request for such
28 information.
29 Section 7. Subsection (1) of section 327.353, Florida
30 Statutes, is amended to read:

CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 327.353 Blood test for impairment or intoxication in
2 cases of death or serious bodily injury; right to use
3 reasonable force.--
4 (1)(a) Notwithstanding any recognized ability to
5 refuse to submit to the tests provided in s. 327.352 or any
6 recognized power to revoke the implied consent to such tests,
7 If a law enforcement officer has probable cause to believe
8 that a vessel operated by a person under the influence of
9 alcoholic beverages, any chemical substances, or any
10 controlled substances has caused the death or serious bodily
11 injury of a human being, the person shall submit, upon the
12 request of a law enforcement officer shall require the person
13 operating or in actual physical control of the vessel to
14 submit, to a test of the person's blood for the purpose of
15 determining the alcoholic content thereof or the presence of
16 chemical substances as set forth in s. 877.111 or any
17 substance controlled under chapter 893. The law enforcement
18 officer may use reasonable force if necessary to require the
19 person to submit to the administration of the blood test. The
20 blood test shall be performed in a reasonable manner.
21 Notwithstanding s. 327.352, the testing required by this
22 paragraph need not be incidental to a lawful arrest of the
23 person.
24 (b) The term "serious bodily injury" means an injury
25 to any person, including the operator, which consists of a
26 physical condition that creates a substantial risk of death,
27 serious personal disfigurement, or protracted loss or
28 impairment of the function of any bodily member or organ.
29 (c) The law enforcement officer shall offer any person
30 subject to a blood test under this subsection the opportunity
31 to submit to an approved chemical test of the person's breath
25

CS/HB 983, First Engrossed/ntc
1 and, if the person submits to the test and a valid reading is
2 obtained, the blood test shall be waived. This paragraph shall
3 not apply to any person who is unconscious or whose mental or
4 physical condition does not allow the administration of a
5 breath test or any person whom the law enforcement officer has
6 probable cause to believe was operating a vessel under the
7 influence of any chemical substances as set forth in s.
8 877.111 or any controlled substances.
9 Section 8. Section 327.359, Florida Statutes, is
10 created to read:

16 probable cause to believe was operating or in actual physical
17 control of a vessel in this state while under the influence of
18 alcoholic beverages, chemical substances, or controlled
19 substances;
20 (2) Who was placed under lawful arrest for a violation
21 of s. 327.35, unless such test was requested pursuant to s.
22 327.352(1)(c);
23 (3) Who was informed that if he or she refused to
24 submit to such test he or she is subject to a $500 fine; and

5 (1) In addition to any other ground that may give rise
6 to a finding that a person has lost the power of self-control
7 with respect to substance use and is likely to inflict
8 physical harm on himself or herself or another, a court may
9 find that a person has lost the power of self-control with
10 respect to substance use and is likely to inflict physical
11 harm on himself or herself or another if the person has been
12 arrested for a violation of s. 316.193 or s. 327.35, and:
13 (a) The person has previous to the arrest been
14 convicted of a violation of s. 316.193 or s. 327.35;
