OPINION

JOHNSON, Judge.

The commissioner of public safety revoked Jeffrey Mark Nelson’s driver’s license after he was charged with driving while impaired (DWI). After providing a blood sample that was drawn using an expired blood-test kit, Nelson was asked to provide a second blood sample. Nelson argues that a police officer violated his limited right to counsel by refusing to allow him to speak with an attorney again before deciding whether to provide a second blood sample. He also argues that the officer was not permitted to request a second blood sample from him. We affirm.
