The blood evidence used at trial:
Billy is driving home from a bar on a Friday night when he comes upon a DUI checkpoint. At the checkpoint, an officer smells alcohol on Billy’s breath and asks him to step out of the car. Billy stumbles out of the car and slurs his words when asked a few basic questions about who he is and where he is going.

Billy is arrested on suspicion of DUI and taken to the police station. At the station, a sample of Billy’s blood is taken.
