I wonder when was the last time they didn't perform a BAC test after a late-night deadly crash?

I wouldn't count on anyone getting a BAC anytime soon. Apparently now NYPD feels to need to get a warrant to check their alcohol levels. Driving down the wrong way down an interstate and killing your passengers after leaving a strip club doesn't qualify as probable cause or even reasonable suspicion for those with a badge.

That's also curious because NY has implied consent laws. They don't need a warrant. It should also be noted that the truck driver was tested at the scene, but not the other driver.

Sources said that a doctor at the hospital indicated that the driver did not smell like booze, but investigators may seek a warrant to administer a blood-alcohol test to see if he was intoxicated.

Those charged with upholding the law certainly should be held to a higher standard than the average Joe.

Was he driving his patrol car? If not, I don't see how the cop part is relevant.
