PVT Black had an accident on the FOB and flipped the Humvee, injuring a fellow soldier. What testing code should the UDL use?

• A. AO
• B. IO
• C. AFMES
• D. Limited Use

Answer: (A)

In this on-duty accident, the testing plan is guided by the category that flags accident/incident testing. When a vehicle rollover occurs on a forward operating base and a fellow soldier is injured, the protocol calls for post-incident testing to determine if impairment played a role and to protect the unit’s safety. The code designated for that accident/incident testing pathway is the one chosen, ensuring testing for alcohol or other substances is performed promptly and under proper procedures. The other options fit different situations: AFMES is used when cases involve the medical examiner system, typically in fatalities or special investigations; Limited Use refers to testing results that have restricted use; IO covers circumstances outside the accident/incident testing pathway. Since this scenario centers on an on-base accident requiring timely post-incident testing, the accident/incident code is the correct fit.
