If an applicant fails the initial written test or to establish competency in instrument operation, they are ineligible for reexamination for how many days?

If an applicant fails the initial written test or does not demonstrate the required competency in operating the Intoxilyzer 9000, they must wait for a period of 30 days before being permitted to reexamine. This waiting period is established to ensure that the applicant has adequate time to study the material and improve their understanding of both the theoretical and practical aspects of the instrument's operation. The rationale is to provide enough time for remediation so that candidates are better prepared for their next attempt, which ultimately promotes a higher level of accuracy and safety in the administration of breath alcohol tests. This structured approach underscores the importance of competency in ensuring reliable results from the Intoxilyzer 9000.
