You do not have to do the sobriety tests roadside. However, they are going to take you to the station and make you do it there. IF you refuse a breath test or blood, it is an automatic 6 month license suspension. Then they call a judge, get a warrrant and take your blood anyway. IF you get there far in the process, you are going to lose anyway. Also, they can give a DUI for anything that impairs you. That could be anything not just alcohol.

Not since the stroke, and I get dizzy when I close my eyes.

Drunks don't make good decisions as a rule.
Just remember, you've got a good chance to beat a rap in court.
You have zero chance to beat the police on the side of the road.

While you're waiting for bail, might be a good time to review your life choices.

Those tests are set up so you will fail. Big money in DUI's. Just more government corruption to milk people out of their money.

A breathalyzer can give a false positive reading for a number of reasons, including environmental factors, medications, and medical conditions.
Environmental factors
Chemicals
Exposure to paint fumes, gasoline vapors, or other chemicals can interfere with the breathalyzer's sensors
Temperature
The temperature of the breathalyzer or the environment can affect the reading
Medications
Cough syrups: Cough syrups that contain alcohol can increase the alcohol content in your breath
Cold medicines: Some cold and cough medications contain small amounts of alcohol
Other medications: Albuterol, budesonide, and salmeterol can cause false positives
Medical conditions
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD): Stomach acid can flow back into the mouth, causing a false positive
Ketoacidosis: A condition that can cause the body to produce acetone, which can be mistaken for alcohol
Low-carb diets: The body produces ketones, including acetone, which can be mistaken for alcohol
Other factors
Operator error: Untrained officers may make mistakes that lead to false positives
Mechanical issues: The breathalyzer device itself may be malfunctioning
Fermented foods: Foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, and soy sauce can produce trace amounts of alcohol


Just want to make folks smile, and spit coffee on their keyboard.

If you put beans in your chili, you don't know beans about chili.

God doesn't create temporary people, you will spend eternity somewhere. Choose wisely.

So a sober person can throw away thousands of dollars to defend themselves from over reach by county and city foot soldiers.
I don't drink. But am out in bars on some weekends. Just part of being in the music business. I've had cops tail me leaving a bar. There will be a day that I'm harassed because some power hungry cop thinks he has a drunk driver.

I don't drink or take any prescription meds. If I'm taking cold medication, I'm staying home anyway. I don't go around spreading my germs.
I won't fight them. I will F with them though.

Exactly what I was trying to get through.
You leave a bar, so you MUST have been drinking. Power tripping Barney pulls you over with the sole intent on giving a DUI. Your language and decisions from that point forward will make Barney's actions fruitless.

Walking a straight line is not a sobriety test,it's an agility test and I'm that agile.
