I’m not sure they’d even need to evolve, it’s already illegal to bite people. It probably wouldn’t even need to be made more illegal than it already is.

A single bite would be deadly though. Could they force you to produce an anti-venom?

It would be a murder charge if they died, so the suspect's interests are probably to comply and produce venom for anti-venom.

Probably yes. Forced collection of blood samples for substance testing and cheek swabs for DNA collection.

It's good to know if you ever end up in a Mad TV Playstation 3 situation.
