A field sobriety test is when they ask you to walk a line, touch your nose, recite the alphabet backwards. All designed to give the officer probable cause to give you a blood or breath test. Even if you pass the blood or breath test you can still get convicted if you fail the FST. Not one state requires anyone to take a field sobriety test.

I understand all that..you initial comment said that if you haven’t been drinking..you should refuse to take an FST..just demand a breathalyzer or blood test..that makes perfect sense..it’s what I’d do..so why wouldn’t any sober person NOT do that, and I guess, more importantly, why would a cop object to your doing that?
