Asked on Sep 25th, 2013 on DUI/DWI - California
More details to this question:
I was recently arrested for a (Driving Under Influence) DUI and the police officer administrating the field test and breathalyzer was a trainee. I was told I had pasted the field test but was asked to blow for a BPA. The one scene BPA had malfunction twice but came up with a reading after the third time.

Were they certified to operate the machine? That is the question.

Yes. You need to hire a DUI specialist, and do it soon because you have only 10 days to save your license.

You need an experienced DUI attorney in your area to thoroughly early review your case. I'm not sure what you mean by trainee, but the person administering the breath test must be trained and certified.
