abstract="A Nebraska appeals court ruled that a motorist cannot refuse to take a blood test for drunken driving by asserting he was afraid of needles and AIDS. Phillip Wolfe argued he should not have his license revoked for refusing to submit to the test. Wolfe was stopped for a traffic violation when a breath test showed his blood-alcohol level was 0.20, over the State's legal limit. The officer took Wolfe to a hospital for a confirmatory blood-alcohol test, but he refused and offered a urine test. Wolfe said the officer did not tell him he would lose his license for a year if he failed to take the blood test. State law does not obligate the police officers to disclose this information and the ruling in favor of the Department of Motor Vehicles was upheld.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
