Sure, but that doesn’t stop the localities that put it after from being totally wrong and stupid.

That roadside test is NOT a breathalyzer test. It’s called a “Preliminary Breath Test”. Your links all advise you have to take the breathalyzer test, and that’s true. But a breathalyzer test doesn’t happen in the field. It’s at the station attached to a very not portable machine and happens after you get arrested. Call an actual DUI lawyer yourself and ask them the difference. A PBT is not a breathalyzer test.

I didn’t Google. I looked at Louisiana law statutes.

And that implied consent law is for a breathalyzer test. Not the one they do on the side of the road. You don’t lose your license to refuse a pbt.

And you’ve been lied to and you’re wrong. I just read your Louisiana revised statute 32.666 and you don’t have to take a preliminary breath test (the little one the cops use on the side of the road).
Again, though. Not a lawyer. Speak to your lawyer in Louisiana and ask them. Other jurisdictions may have different laws.

Ask a lawyer in your state sometime. You will very likely discover that you can and should refuse the roadside stuff.

If he wasn’t taken to the station for the real breath test and blood or urine, he isn’t being charged with DUI.

In most states you’re allowed to not take the roadside breath test, despite cops lying like motherfuckers about it. It’s the one at the station after you’ve been arrested that you have to take if you don’t want to automatically get your license taken for like a year, and they always do at least two different samples between that breath test, urine, and blood. Don’t do those and you’re pretty much guaranteed you lose your license and get the DUI charge as well.

If you’re in the US, in states I know of, at least, if you weren’t taken back to the station and had another DUI test done and took two other chem tests such as blowing in their big machine (not that little roadside one), a urine sample, and\or a blood draw, then I doubt you’re getting charged with DUI. The roadside breathalyzer and heel to toe bullshit is just stuff used as a precursor to your arrest and you don’t even have to do either of those. The tests to take you to court and charge you are all done after you’ve been arrested and are at the jail. The testing back at the jail house is what you aren’t allowed to refuse without losing your license. You don’t have to do shit roadside and there’s no consequences, despite the lying shit the cop will tell you. Not the lil breath test, or walking a line, or following the officers finger or nothing. All that can be refused. It’s all just so the officer has standing for being able to arrest you. Before you’re at the jail, you don’t have to participate in ANYTHING that is trying to determine your sobriety.
As the top commenter said. Don’t consent to search. Don’t resist. Get out if asked to get out, but close and if possible even lock your door. Exercise 4th, 5th, and 6th. STATE that you’re exercising your right to remain silent and not answer questions and then STFU till you talk to a lawyer.
I could make this a list of shit and things to do like a mile long, but that’s the highlight reel.
I’m not a lawyer. I’m not your lawyer. This is not law advice. I don’t know if there’s any exceptions to this in your particular state.

Maybe. There was a orca calf that fed on the exploded bits, while the adults left the small parts for it and only ate the bigger parts.
They made baby food.

Yes. It’s not necessarily the size that makes the noise, but rather the rpm required of the smaller fans to move an equivalent amount of air. I have a fan in my phone, for instance. It is so small that it spins at 23,000 rpm to make just a small amount of air movement I can barely feel, but easily hear. My ceiling fan can’t be heard at all but still moves WAY more air while spinning at a couple hundred rpm. The air turbulence from blade speed is most of what you hear from a fan.
- Comment on 4 days ago:
It’s just some standard fluid dynamics. It uses “Bernoulli’s Principle” and the “Coanda Effect”.
You can look up those, or probably look up those along with “dyson bladeless fan” to find a more direct explanation. The gist of it is that the ring of moving air causes a pressure drop inside and behind the opening that causes the air from further behind the ring to rush into the low pressure area and get pulled along through it.
- Comment on 4 days ago:
A much higher percentage of extra air will get pulled “down range” from a Dyson style fan. It’s just that the air speed and total volume of those dysons are too low and they’d be noisy as hell to overcome it. But as a ratio of forced air to air that moves along, it’s a much better amount than a traditional fan.
- Comment on 4 days ago:
The air thing is real physics. It does “work”. It just isn’t very useful in this application.
- Comment on 5 days ago:
It’s also just Dyson’s completely overpriced bullshit. It makes weak air flow and has no real benefit for use as a fan.
Project Farm has tested them a couple different times. They’re expensive aesthetic toys.

- Comment on Panino police: packed lunch bans enrage Italians at pricey beach clubs 2 weeks ago:
They can put up all the signs they want. The statewide law is that wet sand areas are public access, no matter what, and cannot be blocked or screwed with by anyone. Dry sand can be privately owned property. Many counties will expand on that wet sand law, such as walton county, where Miramar beach is at, and the public is required to be able to have access to walk or jog the first 20 feet of dry sand as well. Also sunbathe there from like 9 to 4… But you have to be separated by 5 feet from anyone when using the dry 20 feet worth of sand.

Yeah. I grew up watching the Flintstones. He was never portrayed as a loser. He was just a regular blue collar guy. Like Dan on Roseanne. Not like Al from married with children. Someone who was broke all the time but still had a 2 story house and dog, wife, two kids, and a shitty car and vacation like every year even though he was a single income shoe salesman at a mall that was bad at his job.
