Where the results of a urine test were used to revoke a driver’s license under the implied consent law; and the driver argues that urine tests are less accurate than blood and breath tests; we conclude that the implied consent law, which authorizes three separate forms of chemical testing to determine a driver’s alcohol concentration, did not violate the driver’s right to equal protection because the law withstands the rational-basis test, and as applied to the driver, the law is not unconstitutional because the driver himself chose to submit to a urine test.

We reject the additional claims of error.

Affirmed.
