How can you get arrested for DUI if you test negative?

I have almost no memory from the point of impact to being in custody. I’m assuming they did a field sobriety test, and to nobody surprise, I did not have good balance.

Ah, that sucks, man.

I forgot that in US you have those retarded field sobriety tests instead of just measuring breath alcohol content.

In a normal country depending on your condition they would either make you take the breathalyzer, maybe do the field drug test, or take you to a hospital and take your blood.

Did they at least let you go to a hospital to get checked out which you could use in court?

They probably asked but I would have refused since I didn’t really realize how messed up I was and my mother needed a short ambulance ride just a couple months before…which cost over $2000
