If you've been pulled over after you've had a few beers. What are the ramifications of denying a sobriety test? What is the best course of action if you aren't sure you will pass?

If there is any possibility that you will fail the test, then you should refuse any and all sobriety tests and refuse to speak until your lawyer is present.

In most states, the penalty for refusing a breathalyzer test is a suspended driver's license, possibly for a year or more. This sucks, but it sucks far less than a DWI conviction. Refusing the tests makes it much harder to convict you on drunk driving charges, and you want to avoid a criminal conviction at all costs.
