Which of the following is NOT a phase of OUI enforcement?

The correct answer identifies 'Reasonable Articulable Suspicion' as not being a distinct phase of OUI (Operating Under the Influence) enforcement. In the context of law enforcement, Reasonable Articulable Suspicion is a legal standard that allows an officer to briefly stop a person for investigation. However, it is not a step or phase in the OUI enforcement process itself.

The phases of OUI enforcement typically include Vehicle in Motion, where the officer observes the driving behavior of an individual that prompts further investigation, Personal Contact, which involves direct interaction with the driver to assess their state, and Pre-Arrest Screening, where field sobriety tests are conducted to evaluate impairment. These phases focus on the actions and observations made by law enforcement during an OUI investigation, while Reasonable Articulable Suspicion serves as the threshold that may justify initiating the enforcement process, rather than being a phase within it.
