Your Rights and Field Sobriety Tests: Knowing your rights is the first step in any legal encounter.

However, this decision should not be taken lightly, as it may affect the outcomes of any legal proceeding thereafter.
Deciding to take a field sobriety test without understanding the potential consequences or without considering the situation's specifics could put you at a disadvantage. Let Ely Valentine & Reed guide you through the implications so you're never left in the dark.
Understanding Field Sobriety Tests
There are different types of field sobriety tests, each designed to assess various faculties that might be impaired by alcohol or drugs. Knowledge about these tests can help you understand what law enforcement is analyzing during their assessment.
Field sobriety tests typically involve tasks that require balance, attention, and the ability to follow instructions clearly. Common tests include the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus (HGN), the Walk-and-Turn, and the One-Leg Stand. Each evaluates different capacities that could be diminished by impairment.
Legal Implications of Test Results
The results of a field sobriety test can substantially influence the course of a legal case. A failed test may be considered as evidence of impairment, which could lead to an arrest and charges. It's essential to understand how these tests can be used within the legal system.
Our network of attorneys can dissect the minutiae of field sobriety test results and argue for their validity or dismiss their legitimacy based on specific variables. This level of detailed defense strategy is critical for those who have submitted to such tests.
The Right to Refuse a Field Sobriety Test
In many jurisdictions, you have the right to refuse a field sobriety test. This decision could potentially protect you from giving evidence that may not accurately reflect your level of impairment. However, it's important to consider the repercussions of refusal.
Refusing a field sobriety test can lead to other consequences, such as automatic license suspension or even arrest, dependent on state laws. Our attorneys are ready to navigate these complex legal waters with you.
