萨斯喀彻温省对合法停留期间的驾驶员进行强制性呼吸测试,对醉酒驾车者处以相应的拒绝处罚。 Saskatchewan enforces mandatory breath tests for drivers during legal stops, with refusal penalties matching those for drunk driving.

2026年3月,萨斯喀彻温省推出《交通安全焦点》,提醒司机,自2018年12月以来,警方可根据联邦法律,在合法停留期间,不论怀疑与否,向任何驾驶员申请呼吸样本。 In March 2026, Saskatchewan launched its Traffic Safety Spotlight, reminding drivers that police can request a breath sample from any motorist during a legal stop, regardless of suspicion, under federal law since December 2018. 拒绝测试的处罚与超过法定酒精限量的处罚相同,包括自动吊销执照和罚款。 Refusing a test carries the same penalties as exceeding the legal alcohol limit, including automatic license suspension and fines. 最近在Estevan发生的一起案件中,一名妇女在拒绝路边测试后被罚款2 000美元,并被暂停驾驶。 A recent case in Estevan saw a woman fined $2,000 and suspended from driving after refusing a roadside test. SGI敦促公众提前制定计划,使用安全的交通替代办法,防止驾驶不便,因为驾驶不便仍然是该省致命撞车的首要原因。 SGI urges the public to plan ahead and use safe transportation alternatives to prevent impaired driving, which remains the top cause of fatal crashes in the province.
