Illinois House approves tough drunk driving bill

The Illinois House passed a bill 1567 to broaden police powers to obtain evidence of drunkenness and stiffen penalties for drivers who refuse breath, blood, or urine tests. It would allow testing of unconscious or dead drivers, drop the 9 minute wait, and let refusals be used as evidence, drawing strong backing from Secretary of State Jim Edgar and sharp opposition citing Fifth Amendment concerns and a feared local Gestapo enforcement.
