The statute 60-6-197 pertains to which concept?

• A. Implied consent
• B. HGN
• C. PBT
• D. Driving under the influence

Answer: (A)

Implied consent is the concept here. By operating a vehicle on public roads, you’re deemed to have given consent to chemical testing (breath, blood, or urine) if lawfully arrested for driving under the influence. The statute in question codifies that assumption and usually outlines the consequences of refusing a test, such as license suspension. The other items are related to DUI in different ways—HGN is a field sobriety/observational cue, and a PBT is a roadside screening device—but they’re not the legal principle described by this statute. Driving under the influence is the offense itself, not the consent framework.
