Narrative:
I was pulled over by local police in tennessee for speeding. I was asked to take a breathalizer test and I refused. I was convicted of implied consent in that state. I was never convicted of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated, impaired or under the influence. I have never had a tennessee driver's license. I have an ohio driver's license which has never been revoked, canceled or suspended. I received a letter from the FAA stating that I had a motor vehicle action in tennessee 4 1/2 yrs ago and did not notify the FAA within 60 days of conviction dec/mon/90. They also stated that I have not answered the questions on my medical application concerning convictions honestly. Now the FAA is trying to investigate for non-compliance of far's 61.15 and 67.20. The far's are broad and does not state that implied consent is a motor vehicle action.
