13

the influence of intoxicating liquor, drugs, toluene, or any controlled substance defined in chapter

14

28 of title 21, or any combination of these, to a degree which rendered the person incapable of

15

safely operating a vehicle. The fact that any person charged with violating this section is or has

17

violating this section.

18

      (2) Whoever drives or otherwise operates any vehicle in the state with a blood presence

19

of any scheduled controlled substance as defined within chapter 28 of title 21, as shown by

8

been complied with:

9

10

made. Evidence that the defendant had refused to submit to the test shall not be admissible unless
