[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 684465, member: 11791"] Move to Canada. Or at least parts of it - I can't speak for every province. But here, "implied consent" is only imputed for [I]medical[/I] consent - so, if you are unconscious and don't have family members there to speak for you, you can't actually consent to a blood transfusion, or surgery - so the medical doctors are given the power to decide what is medically in your best interests. [I]They can't apply that to a police request for a blood sample[/I]. They may be able to TAKE the sample, but they can't release it unless or until you are able to actually give consent. [/QUOTE]
