RegulationsQuestion 35 of 100
A remote pilot is asked by a law enforcement officer to submit to a test for alcohol after an incident, and the pilot refuses without a valid reason. What is the likely consequence for the pilot's certificate?
a.A written warning is placed in the pilot's file with no further action
b.The certificate is automatically converted to a student pilot certificate
c.Refusal is grounds for denial of an application for one year and for suspension or revocation of the certificate
d.The pilot must simply retake the aeronautical knowledge test before flying again
Explanation
Correct answer: refusal is grounds for denial of a certificate application for up to one year and for suspension or revocation of an existing remote pilot certificate. Section 107.59 covers refusal to submit to an alcohol test or to furnish drug or alcohol test results requested by the FAA or law enforcement. A warning letter, downgrading the certificate, and retesting are not the consequences described in the rule.
