Fake being drunk

[acmb05]

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? lets say all US states.

Ok,,,I was reading a thread about what to do if pulled over for being drunk. On the otherhand,,what would happen if say you were driving along and you suddenly made a quick swerve to avoid someting in the road (say small animal) and then a cop follows you and pulls you over and asked if you were drinking but say no but want to act drunk as a joke. So he asks this and that and you refuse a breath test but on purpose you walk a crooked line and he takes you in for a blood test which comes back negative. What could you be charged with? or can he drop the charge of dui?

Whether you were acting or not. In my state the minute you refuse the test you lose your license for 6 months.

Recently, a police patrol car was parked outside a local bar. After last call, the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so intoxicated that he could barely walk. The man stumbled around the parking lot for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing the whole time. After what seemed an eternity in which he tried his keys on five different vehicles, the man finally managed to find his pickup truck and fall into it. He sat there in the bed of the truck for a few minutes as a number of other patrons left the bar and drove off.

Finally, he got into the cab and started the engine, switched the wipers on and off (it was a dry summer night), flicked the blinkers on and off a couple of times, honked the horn and then switched on the headlights. He drove the truck forward a few inches, reversed a little and then remained still for a few more minutes as some more of the other patrons' vehicles left. He sat there fiddling with his window for so long, his truck was the only car left in the parking lot. Finally, he pulled out and drove slowly down the road, weaving gently from side to side.

The police officer, having waited patiently all this time, started up his patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over and administered a breathalyzer test. To his amazement, the breathalyzer indicated no evidence that the man had consumed any alcohol at all! Dumbfounded, the officer said, "Sir, I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the police station. This breathalyzer equipment must be broken."

"Oh, I seriously doubt it", said the driver. "Tonight I'm the designated decoy."

There is a portable breath analyzer that you have to take? I thought all of those were either at the station or part of a large mobile unit.

 

[You Are Guilty]

That is a compound question, so let me break it down for clarity's sake.

Yes, Vassock, there is such a thing as a portable breath analyzer. It exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no portable breath analyzers. It would be as dreary as if there were no Vassocks. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished.

Not believe in portable breath analyzers! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the DWI checkpoints on Christmas Eve to catch portable breath analyzers, but even if they did not see portable breath analyzers coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees portable breath analyzers, but that is no sign that there is no portable breath analyzer. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world.

You may tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, Vassock, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding.

No portable breath analyzers! Thank God! They live, and live forever. A thousand years from now, Vassock, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, portable breath analyzers will continue to make glad the heart of childhood.

And having said that, no, you are not required under the law to submit to one.

What an utterly stupid idea. Surely you have better things going on in your life to focus on, no?
