It's the totality of everything. Including known existing medical conditions, which may invalidate that portion of the test. There's more than just 1 single step to formulate the big picture.
The cop doesn't care if the subject has a medical condition. The cop's goal isn't to objectively accurately determine if you're impaired or not, his goal is to make an arrest to score a point towards his MADD award and his department's NHTSA grants. Some departments are now billing defendants for the "police costs" of the arrest, at $165 an hour. Don't forget costs, fees, and fines payable to the court. There's money to be made from accusing people, whether accurately or not, of DUI. With DUI, it's very easy, because the cop just claims to have seen the "signs of impairment." It's the cop's sole word, backed up by his "training" in phony science. The same thing used to happen with witches: people came up with ways to "identify" witches and accusers would testify they saw the defendant levitate or some other fantastical feat that didn't happen. The accuser makes up fake science and evidence in pursuit of a conviction and the resulting reward.
In atlanta they arrested a few people claiming they were driving under the influence of cannabis. Charges were dismissed and even after urine and blood tests were negative they claimed the officers capabilities for detecting these substances were better than the tests. I am not making this up lol
@@alialghamdi7153MADD gets paid either way, whether the people arrested are actually under the influence of drugs/alchohol or not. MADD is completely content with people not under the influence of drugs or alcohol to be arrested, typically with the help of junk science and police perjury. You never hear MADD decry lying police or urging development of accurate ways of measuring impairment, or of the importance of not arresting those who aren't impaired. In fact, MADD encourages police to lie with "top cop" awards presented at lavish banquets to the cops who have made the most arrests. Cops make stuff up to pad their arrest stats.
Dear MADD, I'm a reporter with ABC15 in Phoenix, Arizona, and I'm doing a story about DREs. Can I use this video on-air and online? Thanks melissa@abc15.com
Are you doing a story on how DRE is junk science? I sure hope so, because it is junk science. Maybe also mention that cops get incentives to make arrests in the form of MADD "top cop" awards for making a high number of arrests, grant money, and overtime pay. Maybe also mention that police lie in their reports and on the stand to artificially justify arrests and pursue convictions. Maybe mention that some of the worst offending "DUI supercops" have actually been disciplined or even charged as they were stumbling over themselves (and perjuring themselves) trying to rack up arrest body counts for their MADD awards.
Who says a healthcare provider isn't biased? Maybe they had a family member killed by an impaired driver, or possibly the healthcare provider could have been charged with impaired driving in the past. A police officer can learn validated techniques as part of their skill set to use in the field for reasonable public safety reasons. Just like they can learn CPR/first aid. (Last I checked, non-healthcare providers can learn those skills.) The assumption that law enforcement is biased, and that healthcare providers aren't biased, is in itself a biased opinion. Do you see my point?
How can police go by blood pressure and heart rate? So many people have issues with this. I know certain drugs can influence BP and heart rate.
I have a friend that can change his heart rate whenever he wants. Watched a nurse freak out when he did it.

Sounds very subjective.

So are the opinions of a doctor, or a mechanic.

This is disturbing. An officer should not be conducting this- it should be a healthcare provider who is non biased.
