One may be required to take a field sobriety test if one has been pulled over by a police officer who suspects one is under the influence of alcohol. The test consists of tasks that see if one's coordination is impaired.

In Florida refusing to submit to a sobriety test is your right by law true or false?

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.

When can a police officer ask you to take a sobority test?

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.

Can law enforcement officers in the state of Georgia draw blood from a person at a traffic stop?

no! no one other than a medical professional can draw blood, even if that officer has medical background training he cannot draw blood on you like that. did he sterilize your arm, where did he get the needle from, was it clean? call a lawyer, your civil rights have been violated. there are field sobriety test that can be given on the spot if they suspect usage of drugs or alcohol. if you were to refuse a breathalizer test then they can take you to a hospital for a blood test if they feel you have failed the field sobriety test, failure then to submit to one is automatic termination of your drivers license.
