Conviction affirmed because admitted facts and certificates established that the officers were trained screening breath test operators, no expertise beyond training was required to operate the devices, the Lion Alcolmeter result justified requiring a Drager Alcotest screening test under s39B(1)(a), and all six failed attempts were due to insufficient blowing under s39B(10); sentence was reduced because the lower court had not considered the discretion under s39B(8) to treat the prior conviction as spent, warranting reduction of the disqualification period from 5 to 2 years.
