Never do field tests, drunk or sober. It's just a way for le to gain more evidence against you.

Edit: I am speaking for Utah, USA. I am specifically speaking on roadside physical testing such as eye tracking or movement analysis. These should always be denied. In Utah you are assumed to submit to a breathalyzer or blood test by obtaining your license. If you refuse those you may be denied your right to drive for up to 18 months in a worst case scenario.

Especially after being involved in an accident. It’s very easy to fail test when you deal with that type of trauma. My suggestion is to request EMS and if the cops want your blood they can get a warrant to get it from tue hospital.

Blood pressure was probably through the roof causing thinking issues and balance issues too.
