Pennsylvania State Police Suspend Breathalyzer Testing

Posted: Updated:

Pennsylvania State Police have decided to temporarily suspend the use of breathalyzers during DUI stops.

State police will now have to bring the suspect back to the booking center for a blood test.

This stems from Dauphin County judge who recently ruled that the calibration was skewed on some of the breathalyzers used by state police.  Many cases are now being reviewed.

    We clear out the clouds today, and it won't be long before you notice the change in humidity.

    Look for sunshine and a comfortable day. Winds will be out of the North around 5-10 mph with highs near 80.
