alcoholic beverage and was driving a vehicle with a blood-alcohol
concentration of 0.01 percent or greater, as measured by a
preliminary alcohol screening test or other chemical test.
   (c) (1) Any person under the age of 21 years who drives a motor
vehicle is deemed to have given his or her consent to a preliminary
alcohol screening test or other chemical test for the purpose of
determining the presence of alcohol in the person, if lawfully
detained for an alleged violation of subdivision (a).
   (2) The testing shall be incidental to a lawful detention and
administered at the direction of a peace officer having reasonable
cause to believe the person was driving a motor vehicle in violation
of subdivision (a).
   (3) The person shall be told that his or her failure to submit to,
or the failure to complete, a preliminary alcohol screening test or
other chemical test as requested will result in the suspension or
revocation of the person's privilege to operate a motor vehicle for a
