officer I've only had two beers a terrible thing to say to a police officer now you've admitted to drinking so that gives him probable cause to go to the next step and start asking you for test now probable cause is not much has a crime probably been committed if he gets enough evidence he'll arrest you for DUI so don't help him always refuse to take the field sobriety test they're designed for you to fail police officers won't use words like pass or fail when it comes to the field sobriety test they'll use the words indicators of impairment and what you don't know while you're taking these tests is little nuances that your body will do naturally are indicators of impairment to them at the end of the day always avoid talking to the police but specifically avoid these five words
