Bill > SB5880

This bill modifies existing laws concerning toxicology testing, specifically for driving under the influence cases, by allowing blood or breath analysis to be performed by either an individual with a permit from the state toxicologist or by a laboratory certified to international standards (ISO/IEC 17025 for forensic toxicology testing). It also outlines procedures for local governments to contract with the state patrol for evidence from the state toxicological laboratory and requires contracts with private laboratories to include provisions for defense interviews and electronic service of legal documents. The bill also makes minor adjustments to the required observation periods before breath tests and the acceptable temperature range for simulator solutions, with one section expiring in June 2027 and another taking effect immediately after.
