Iowa Supreme Court eases timing rule in drunken driving test
William L. Thomas barred from using test results in Stoneking trial after a blood test administered five minutes beyond two hours. The court held the implied consent law requires the test be provided within two hours, not necessarily administered, overturning prior rulings that equated provided with administered. The ruling narrows limits on admissibility in drunk driving prosecutions.
