The part saying it doesn't matter if he passed. The law you linked and copy/pasted states that when testing is refused (including field sobriety test), then officer can make arrest based upon reasonable suspicion.
Because he submitted to testing, and passed, he cannot be arrested under the implied consent law, because he has done what he had consented to do as a license carrier

But he can still be arrested if the officer thinks he's intoxicated. Even if he passed, but in most cases the cop would just say he didn't pass. Either way, dude got lucky.
