Why is blood alcohol testing considered non-testimonial as opposed to evidence that is testimonial?
Because they are the results of a scientifically proven and court sanctioned laboratory test, (i.e.: the results speak for themselves) and they are not the result of someone's independent conclusion which requires testimony and cross examination. The common vernacular has a saying that covers this.... "It is what it is."
