You can refuse a field sobriety test and that is your right and you cannot be punished from refusal alone. If you refuse a blood or urine or breathe test then you automatically have your driver's license suspended for a year.
The officer can require you to perform field sobriety tests and submit to the breathalyzer on the scene. If you blow above .08 BAC you will be detained and taken to the station to submit to another breathalyzer or possibly a blood draw.
You can take the company to court and have the court submit a judgment against the company. You can actually obtain your money from the company that refuses to submit the Garnishee Answer.
A police officer needs only reasonable suspicion of driving while intoxicated to ask you to submit to a sobriety test, actually called an SFST: Standard Field Sobriety Test. You are not obligated to submit to such a test. However, if you do not take the test, the officer will act on the observations he has already made of your behavior, and may arrest you for driving under the influence. He will then ask you to submit to a breath or blood test. If you refuse one of those, you will have your driver's license revoked.
Either you submit to the field sobriety test or you can go to the station and give blood, breath, or urine to determine your BAC.
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
you can always refuse a sobriety test no matter what state, but when u do so the fine u get is nonnegotiable. ====== Most states have what are known as implied consent laws, where, by driving on public roadways within that state, you essentially acknowledge your consent to be rendered a field sobriety test if pulled over. Refusing to take a field sobriety test will lead to arrest, and a good chance that a warrant will be obtained for them to take a BAC reading by means of involuntary blood test, as well as additional charges.
I assume you have had your car pulled over and the cops have told you that they are bringing dogs? Whenever you are in doubt, simply ask the officer if you are free to go. He can not hold you unlawfully so he will be forced to tell you yes and then you may leave. On a similar note, you are required to submit to a breathalyser. As part of receiving your drivers license, you agree to submit to them and sobriety tests.
Yes. If you owe money and can't pay, at least file on time. Then you may be charged some interest, but no penalty.
It's likely to vary by state, but a general rule of thumb is one year for a first offence.
Yes, if you refuse the breathalyzer or other field sobriety tests you can be booked for that and taken to jail. Usually you will have your license suspended for 6 months to a year depending on the laws of your state.
