    Depending on your jurisdiction, you may be able to refuse a field sobriety test and opt for a chemical test (breath or blood) instead. That’s the case in my state and many others.

    You can also generally refuse a chemical test as well, but doing so will likely get your license suspended.

    But check your local laws to be sure.

      Refuse field breathalyzers if allowed and have them use the big one at the station. The field ones are super inaccurate.

  Fun fact there is literally no scientific backing to field sobriety tests. In fact there is a lot of scientific evidence proving they don’t work.

    That’s interesting. Any recommended ones? If I had to guess its a lot easier to find flaws in something than it is to prove it 100% right.

    As I understand it, these tests are trying to get more data on if the driver is severely intoxicated or has major motor function issues.

    Yeah, why not use a breath analyzer or something. I am a drunk and could do those test really wasted.

      Because it’s harder for cops to discriminate against dark skinned people if they use objective measurements.

  reminder to never submit to a field sobriety test, as you are at the whom of the officer conducting it, and as we all know, acab

  also if you drive under the influence or are fucking around with your touchscreen dash or phone or something, fuck you
