(this is in PA btw)

I was speaking with a friend today and he mentioned this girl he'd been hanging out with is on probation because of an underage DUI. Her story was that she had one drink, a guy swerved and hit her, then they (I guess the police?) took her to the hospital and ran a blood test on her and found out she'd been drinking.

This got me wondering, what circumstances warrant conducting a blood test in lieu of an accident? Is it only if there is major personal injury involved or what?
