The manual is very informative. For example of the tWo accepted field sobriety tests, one leg stand and walk and turn, they are generally inappropriate for persons over age 65 or persons 50 pounds or more overweight. what I think the general public doesn't realize is the steps an officer goes through before even making the stop.
Anway, my general advice is
DONT DRINK AND DRIVE
Take a cab
Have your license registration and insurance card readily available so if stopped you can produce it without fumbling
If stopped be polite and keep both hands on the steering wheel
Do not agree to HGN... not generally accepted as evidence of impairment anyway...just PC to request real intoxicated teest
Do not agree to PBT...again not generally admissible to impairment...just PC for real test
Do not take field sobriety...walk and turn or one leg stand
If you have had ANYTHING to drink in past 4 hours do not take intoxilizer
If you do take intoxilizer and blow over demand an independent test at local emergency room at your own expense immediately.
After you get out call Saul
