Should I refuse the breathalyzer to protect myself if I'm accused of reckless driving?
People are always telling me to refuse the breathalyzer so you have to get the test done at the station with witnesses. Their logic is that if you aren't even intoxicated the officer can lie about the reading on the breathalyzer as an excuse to take you in and if he asked you to blow he already made up his mind anyways and is going to take you to the station no matter what you blow.
Not a career drunk driver or anything, I just know some cops like to abuse their power and reach quotas.
