In Italian traffic rules (Codice della Strada), what is the rule regarding the consequence of refusing to submit to a breathalyzer test (alcoltest) requested by police officers?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: A. Treated as admission of guilt

  1. Step 1: Under Art. 186, paragraph 7, refusal to undergo testing for alcohol intoxication is punished with the same maximum criminal penalties as the highest BAC tier (> 1.5 g/l). Answer: Treated as admission of guilt. Why not the others: the other options do not conform to Italian traffic regulations under the Codice della Strada.
