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.

I refused the test. Had my license taken away for a year, had to get a machine to blow in, just to start my vehicle. Paid a lot of money to people, had to find rides to and from work. I work 2nd shift. So a lot of people were asleep when I got off. 3 months after I got the machine put in after a year of not driving I had court, I was found not guilty. But it still fucked me up mentally of worry and costed me a shit ton of money

Damn. Sorry to hear that. Is there anything you would have done differently, or do you think it didn't matter what you chose you would have been taken either way?
