Affirmed.
Justice: 
SCHMIDT

Defendant was convicted for driving with an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or higher. Court did not abuse its discretion in admitting electronic certification documents, as State satisfied the foundational requirements necessary for admitting the certification as self-authenticated business records. State's exhibits clearly show that Department of State Police regularly tested the Breathalyzer machine for accuracy and that it worked properly on date Defendant submitted to the test. Results of Breathalyzer test were properly admitted. (CARTER and HOLDRIDGE, concurring.)
