In Tennessee, and I'm sure most everywhere else, a police officer can give you a field sobriety test such as making you walk a straight line, asking you to say the alphabet, or anything else like that, and if you fail, you can be arrested on the suspicion of drunk driving. However, I suspect you're looking for the term "breathalizer" which is the electronic device they use to determine your blood alcohol level.
