Question:
Can I refuse the sobriety field tests?
Answer:
You may be asking yourself if you’re stopped by the police and have been drinking, should you do the standardized field sobriety exercises or “roadside Olympics.”? The answer to that question is actually no in the state of Maryland. There is no requirement that you do the roadside exercises. A lot of times what the officers are doing is gathering evidence against you to be used in your case.
