Section 27-1-10.1 Insurance coverage for drugs to treat life-threatening illnesses. (a) The
Legislature finds and declares the following: (1) The citizens of this state rely upon health

Section 36-18-50 Legislative findings. The Legislature finds, determines, and declares the
following: (1) Driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or a controlled substance
continues to be a major problem on the highways of our state and causes the death or injury
of thousands of our citizens each year. (2) The Legislature should use whatever authority
is available to it to discourage driving a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or
a controlled substance, including the levying of fines therefor at a level which will discourage
such activity. (3) Administering and implementing a quality chemical testing program for alcohol
and controlled substances is costly for the taxpayers and thus the convicted offender should
bear a greater portion of the financial burden of the chemical testing program at the state
and local level. (4) The chemical breath testing program conducted by this state has reduced
the number of deaths and injuries, and the program continues to be...
