  3. Breath Alcohol Website cont • Provide information on Breath Alcohol tests performed • Dates and times of tests • Locations of tests • Results of tests • Provide supporting documentation

  4. Breath Alcohol Website cont • Allow law enforcement personnel to read training materials and take tests (based on process used by Polk County Sheriff’s Office) • Provide information on certified law enforcement personnel • Provide information on Breath Alcohol limits

  5. Useful Information • Statistics which can be used by the media and law enforcement personnel • Locations with most failed tests • Times of day with most failed tests • Information to be used by organizations such as MADD, AAA and AARP

  6. Des Moines Register • James Wilkerson • This sounds very interesting…….we'd love to be able to get a regular dump of the full data on a regular basis. • This information can be used to inform the public which areas of the state have the most or least problems with OWI • The statistics can be used to inform the public what the OWI levels are and how easy is to reach the illegal levels.

  7. Matt Baker, Channel 13 • This information would be very useful • The information has relevance to local news • Number of OWI tests given during a particular time • Number of OWI tests given in a particular area • How do the time and area relate to a particular test (such as when a test is given to a prominent person) • Number of people who were over the limit in a particular time and area • How information is related to deaths caused by OWI

  8. Dave Busiek, Channel 8 • If I understand the idea correctly, I think it would be something we'd definitely be interested in.  I can envision any number of news stories which could be relevant to Iowans.  Of course, it's hard for me to predict exactly what kinds of stories might be generated until I can see some of the date being produced. •  If, for instance, the data showed some regions of the state are stricter in terms of enforcement than others, that's something in which we'd be interested.  We'd also want to know if, when tracked over time, readings are going up, or conversely, going down.
