If you're stopped by the police for suspicion of driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while drunk (DWI) you'll more than probably be asked to submit to a "breathalyzer" test. If an officer "ask" you to take the breathalyzer test- if he suspects you've been drinking and driving- is usually not a matter of negotiation. Have questions?
