News » 'Tim's Law' requiring blood draws advances

Mar. 8, 2010
A proposal to require blood draws from drivers involved in any serious or deadly crash is going to Governor Doyle's desk.

Rep. Dan LeMahieu of Cascade introduced the bill in memory of Tim McKee. McKee lost his life in November of 2008, in a Washington County crash, and the driver who hit him didn't have his blood drawn until three hours had passed.

LeMahieu says McKee's family was on hand last week, when the assembly approved "Tim's Law."

Under the proposal, blood would be drawn even if authorities don't suspect that a driver was under the influence, as long as that driver broke a traffic law.
