Explanation
If you are stopped by officers for suspected drunk driving and you refuse to take a chemical test (such as a blood, urine, saliva, or breath test) to determine your blood alcohol content (BAC), your driver's license will be temporarily suspended. This is in accordance with New York's 'Implied Consent Law,' which requires drivers to submit to chemical testing when lawfully arrested for suspected drunk driving. By operating a motor vehicle in New York, you are implicitly agreeing to this law.
