Director of Public Prosecutions v Noe: QBD 19 Apr 2000

When required to give a sample of breath, the motorist consented but made his consent conditional upon first having access to a law book. He was charged with refusing to provide a specimen of breath without a lawful excuse. A motorist is not entitled to add a condition to his consent, and he had no reasonable excuse.
