Arizona Roadside Saliva (Oral Fluid) DUI Testing Law
How Arizona treats oral fluid (saliva) testing in DUI enforcement — the statute, its current status, and what that means for agencies running roadside drug screening.
Status: Authorized · Law Exists, Deployment Varies
Statute and status in Arizona
Statute / authority: ARS § 28-1321 (blood/breath/urine/other)
NHTSA-funded oral fluid program active through highway safety office. No statewide mandate but agency-level use confirmed.
What this means for agencies in Arizona
Arizona's statute is broad enough to permit oral fluid, but there is no statewide program, so adoption sits with individual agencies and prosecutors. Agencies piloting saliva screening here should pair every roadside result with a preserved specimen and documented chain of custody, so a case never rests on the screen alone.
