Police observe Client to be extremely unsteady on his feet and speaking in incoherent sentences. Police suspect he may be under the influence of drugs, so they summon a Drug Recognition Expert (DRE) to the scene. After a battery of DRE tests, the Police determine Client is unfit to operate a motor vehicle and arrest him. Client is taken to the hospital where he consents to a blood draw.
