you can decline a field sobriety test of any sort. They need probably cause to stop you, reasonable suspicion to arrest you. They also can’t detain you for an unreasonable amount of time.
Cops trample over these rights regularly. Get their camera footage and you might have a way to get the case dismissed.

They need more than reasonable suspicion to arrest you. The bar for arrest is probable cause.
