Don't take the field sobriety or breathalyzer tests. You have the right not to incriminate yourself. Just politely refuse. You may still be arrested and lose your licenses but they'll have to prove you were intoxicated.
Field sobriety tests are not designed to get you arrested, They simply measure the degree of impairment of the driver. If the driver is impaired then the officer has no discretion and must arrest. The place to fight the arrest is in the court and not on the street.
If you fail the roadside sobriety tests, indicating that you are impaired, but the PAS breath test records no blood alcohol level, the California Vehicle Code assumes that drugs or medications have caused the impairment and qualifies for must take offense.The arresting officer has no discretion in the matter. The court is the place to fight this battle, Not the street.
