What's
New
Breath Test Operator Refresher is a new class we have added to address the changes, updates and
issues concerning breath testing. This class is for certified breath test
operators who haven’t had an update in 3 years. It’s recommended that all breath
test operators attend this class every 3 years to maintain their expertise in
operating any evidentiary breath test unit in Pennsylvania.
The Traffic Patrol/Drug Interdiction and Vehicle Search and Seizure classes have both been drastically changed beginning January 2021. This is due to the December 2020 ruling of Com. v. Alexander by the PA Supreme Ct. requiring a higher bar of exigent circumstance present before a warrantless search of a vehicle. A link to the Alexander case is listed below:
