You can refuse, and a law enforcement officer cannot lawfully enter any structure or vehicle without a warrant, probable cause, reasonable suspicion (under certain circumstances), or exigent circumstance (emergencies). However, keep in mind the number of largely innocent people and minor offenders US LEOs have shot and killed with no charges brought. This will continue so long as the American people continue to permit our laws to be subverted.

When pulled over by a police officer, you have the right to remain silent, the right to refuse a search without a warrant, and the right to request an attorney. It is important to stay calm, follow instructions, and avoid any sudden movements. If you believe your rights have been violated, it is best to document the incident and consult with a lawyer.
Yes, in most countries you will have to do the test. If you refuse, the officer is usually empowered to arrest and take you to a police station for a blood test.
no, they need your permission unless they have probable cause
Unless he places you under arrest you may refuse. However, he may be asking you to leave because there is some nearby danger which may harm you in which case you would be a fool to refuse his directions.
