Anything you say can and may be used against you in the court of law. You have the right to consult with an attorney at any time and have him or her present before or during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided if you so desire prior to any questioning. A decision to waive these rights is not final.

You have been arrested for driving while intoxicated, N.J.S.A. 39:4-50. The law requires you to submit samples of your breath for content. A record of the taking of the breath samples, including the test results, will be made. Upon your request, a copy of that record will be made available to you. After you have provided samples of your breath for testing, you have the right at your own expense to have a person or physician of your own selection take independent samples of your breath, blood, or urine for independent testing. If you you refuse to provide samples of your breath, you'll be issued a separate summons for the refusal. A court may find you guilty of both refusal and driving while intoxicated. If a court finds you guilty of the refusal, you'll be subject to subject to various penalties, including license revocation of up to 20 years, a fine of up to $2,000, installation of an ignition interlock, and referral to an intoxicated driver resource center. These penalties may be in addition to penalties imposed by the court for any other offense which you are found guilty. You have no legal right to have an attorney, physician, or anyone else present for the purpose of taking the breath samples. You have no legal right to refuse to give or delay giving samples of your breath. Any response from you that is ambiguous or conditional in any respect to my request that you provide breath samples will be treated as a refusal to submit to breath testing. Even if you agree to take the test but then do not follow my instructions, do not properly perform the test, or do not provide sufficient breath samples, I will charge you with refusal to submit to breath testing. I repeat, the law requires requires you to submit samples of your breath for testing. Will you submit samples of your breath? No? >> I think I think no. >> I >> I don't know. What do you think I should do? >> I cannot give you advice, but I will tell you I have to read you the next part. Your answer is not acceptable. The law requires you to submit samples of your breath for breath testing. If you do not answer or answer with anything other than yes, I will charge you with refusal. Now, I ask you again, will you submit to breath testing? >> No. >> That's not anything. It's just It's just a separate charge. >> Because I told you I did have one. So, I don't know. >> Okay. Now, brings us to who you're going to call. Who are you going to call to pick you up? I'll give you your cell phone. >> No. >> You have to pick somebody or you're going to county jail.
