He can still be charge if he admits to drinking alcohol before getting behind the wheel of a car
When the officer asks “have you been drinking”
always say “no”
Let them prove it
a “yes” is an admittance to guilt and you can still be arrested for DWI regardless of what some test shows.
Exactly.
Where I live it seems like police policy to arrest everyone who admits to having a drink.
Unless you know someone...*wink wink nudge nudge*...there is STILL ‘professional courtesy’ to fall back on.
You are better to not answer than say no. If a breathalyzer proves you had been drinking, the judge will not be happy if you lied to the cop.
