So if he had a drink at home then what??
Don’t answer the door for the police…
@youtubemusic1790 when has refusing this test not resulted in an arrest? It’s common knowledge this is the law here.
@MikeyMike You don’t have to answer when the police knock….
Great time losing your rights even on your own property.
Just don’t answer the door…
We never had any in the eyes of the “enforcers”. On paper yes, but at their discretion.
If they don’t have a warrant you can just close the door. They can keep on knocking till’ they get bored and leave.
@Orisha Eshu For what?
@YouTube music yk for what
That is without question wrong, They can make contact with you after you leave the vehicle for a few hours and you are required to comply. The complaint gives them the legal justification for this test. If you just close the door that gives them the justification to now come in and arrest you. The moment you opened the door and the investigation started you have been detained. The only thing he could have done was not open the door or make contact in anyway.
@Bjj Kickboxing “SWAT” wouldn’t be showing up…
@Me No, they can’t just come in and arrest you; and it’s best to just not answer the door…
Even if it is legal, it cannot stand in court so what is the point? A judge won’t allow the charge to stick unless they 1) witnessed him drive and 2) drive erratically with their own eyes. I would have declined let them arrest
Don’t even answer the door…
Don’t answer the door; pretty simple stuff really…
All for likes and subscribes no doubt😅
how legal is this?
Don’t answer the door; it’s that simple…
F T P . Refuse to comply
Don’t answer the door…
he behaved, unlike others who become abusive to cops and end up having a negative experience.
Don’t answer the door…
Is he driving his house?
Don’t answer the door; that simple…
Don’t you just love those anonymous reports? Bring the accuser….just for more fun 😅😅
Just don’t answer the door…
I would have laughed at the cop and told him to come back with a warrant.
How is that legal? If I am returning from work directly to home and decide to drink a beer at home I would be screwd.
Tell the cops to go get some donuts
Shut the door
Would be weird if a police came to your door and did the test lol
I would have just walked to the door drinking a beer
Just don’t answer the door
Police are great at protecting and upholding our rights 👍
I would have shut the door in his face. Go get a warrant
wtf
