Field Sobriety Tests: An Introduction for Beginners

 

Being pulled over and asked to step out of the car is one of the scariest moments you can face as a driver–taking Field Sobriety Tests can be even scarier.  Often these requests to vacate your vehicle by law enforcement are for one purpose–to arrest you for a D.U.I.  Whether you have been drinking or not, the exercises used by law enforcement (called Standard Field Sobriety Tests, or SFSTs/FSTs) to determine whether they believe you are under the influence can be failed whether you are sober or not.  If you find yourself facing a DUI arrest or you are curious about how these “tests” work, give us a call at 770-415-9848 to discuss your case at the Sellers Law Firm: Where Clients Become Family.
