sobriety tests
Sobriety tests are assessments used by law enforcement to determine if someone is under the influence of alcohol or drugs. They include physical tasks, like walking in a straight line, standing on one leg, or following an object with eyes to check for impairment. These tests help officers evaluate a person's balance, coordination, and alertness, which can be affected by intoxication. While not definitive proof of impairment, the results often support further investigation, such as a breathalyzer or chemical test, to measure blood alcohol content accurately.
