the time of the alleged offense as indicated by a
chemical analysis of a sample of the accused's blood
or breath to determine the alcoholic content of his
blood in accordance with the provisions of Section
10-24 shall give rise to the following presumptions;
1. If there was at that time 0.05 percent or less
by weight by volume of alcohol in the accused's blood,
it shall be presumed that the accused was not under
the influence of alcoholic intoxicants.
2. If there was at that time in excess of 0.05 per-
cent but less than 0.10 percent by weight by volume
of alcohol in the accused's blood, such facts shall
not give rise to any presumptions that the accused

intoxicants, but such facts may be considered with
other competent evidence in determining the guilt or
innocence of the accused.
3. If there was at that time 0.10 percent or more by
weight by volume of alcohol in the accused's blood,
