Consequently, exclusion of the evidence is not a remedy for the violation of \u00a7 28-1321 by the warrantless, non-consensual taking of a breath test as a search incident to a lawful arrest. Although the breath test here may have not complied with the statute, the trial court&#8217;s suppressing the breath-test evidence as a sanction was improper. And, because the exclusionary rule is not applicable here in the first instance, it was unnecessary for the respondent court to examine the administering officer&#8217;s good faith to avoid its application.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Exclusion of evidence for violation of the implied consent statute is not provided for by the statute nor required by the constitution.
