The question is a true statement.

Yes. But police aren't required to have probable cause to pull you over - the standard is reasonable suspicion, which is much lower than probable cause.
The questioner is confusing the wording of two legal concepts. The proper legal usage of the terms is REASONABLE SUSPICION and PROBABLE CAUSE. Reasonable Suspicion is/are those circumstances which arouse the instincts of a trained law enforcement officer to believe that a crime has been, or is about to be committed. Probably Cause leads from Reasonable Suspicion and is developed when a trained law enforcement officer determines that there is enough cause to believe that a crime has been committed and the person whom he can identify, or has in custody, is the one who committed it.
A search cannot be conducted without a warrant, which cannot be obtained without evidence of reasonable suspicion. This reasonable suspicion is often referred to as probable cause.

If an officer has reasonable suspicion to believe you have been drinking and the drinking is related to a crime, he may administer a field sobriety test. Put another way, without reasonable suspicion to believe you have been drinking, an officer under no duty to administer a field sobriety test. Reasonable suspicion is not probable cause. It is a lesser standard.
