Nurse's driver's license suspended after she couldn't do breathalyzer test due to facial paralysis


The officer asked her to provide a breath sample to test for alcohol, which she attempted. But because of her condition, she said she failed to create a seal over the device and blow in enough air for a viable test. "I said 'I'm actually trying my best but I can't even blow up a balloon for my kid's birthday party.' "I showed him my smile, I showed him my teeth, I showed him one side of my face is paralyzed. Prior to that change, police were required to have a reasonable suspicion that a driver had been drinking before demanding a test.
