One night I went out and saw a couple of my buddies play a show. I ended up going to some late night after a little down the road from my place. I drove home like an idiot around 2:30 and got pulled over for not wearing a seatbelt as I was pulling into my driveway. They asked me if I had been drinking and I said yes but earlier around 10 watching my friends band (this was a lie as I was shitfaced). He then asked me to do a breathalyzer and I said I had rather not, so he said I needed to do a field sobriety test right in front of my fricking house. Somehow and thankfully I passed and didn't get a DUI. Assholes still gave me a seatbelt ticket. That's the only run in with OPD I've had. I guess they were cool for not thrown my arse in jail but I've heard enough stories from my friends and others to confidently say frick OPD.
You should be sucking that cops dick for not giving you a DUI, moron.

Technically I was still on the road when the pulled behind me but did not turn their lights on until I was in my driveway. I know they did nothing wrong and were just doin their jobs. Just saying I was in my damn driveway give me a break.

Doesn't matter. If you were shitfaced, he could have still arrested you for implied consent.

Implied consent? What the hell are you talking about? I'm over 21 and the legal limit is .08 giving me a right to drink and drive as long as I am not over the limit. That is the whole reason they ask you to take a breathalyzer (which is not legally required) or take a field sobriety test to judge whether they think you are over the limit or not. Me telling them that I had been drinking earlier gave them no right to arrest me.

If he has reason to think you're intoxicated then it doesn't matter if you passed the test. You said yourself you were shitfaced. When you refuse the breathalyzer they can charge you with implied consent. Which is basically the same punishment as a DUI

Implied consent is for the office breathalyzer I believe.

"Under "implied consent" laws in all states, when they apply for a driver's license, motorists give consent to field sobriety tests and chemical tests to determine impairment. Should a driver refuse to submit to testing when an officer has reasonable suspicion that the driver is under the influence, the driver risks automatic license suspension along with possible further penalties. - See more at: LINK ;
"Consequences for breathalyzer refusal vary by state, which may explain the wide variance in statewide refusal rates, but most states impose an automatic six- or 12-month driver's license suspension upon refusal of a BAC test. Suspensions usually increase for a refusing motorist with past DUI convictions, sometimes including jail time. License suspension following a refusal may also cause your car insurance company to cancel your policy. In many states, if the driver is found guilty of DUI, having refused the breathalyzer can result in enhanced penalties. - See more at: LINK ;

Yeah, that doesn't exist. Since he did the field sobriety test afterwards and passed, it doesn't matter.
Edit: Implied Consent laws do exist, but they don't do what you say they do.

Implied consent is not an actual charge, fricktard
You consent to be breathalyzed or field sobriety tested. Pretty much anytime you refuse a breathalyzer, your license is suspended.

Yes they do. Refusal to submit to a breathalyzer results in an automatic 90 day license suspension but that's the machine at the station and not the field test.

Clarified with the edit. They don't do what he says they do, and its not a charge.

"Implied Consent
Mississippi law requires you to take a breath, blood, or urine test if you are arrested for a DUI. Mississippi’s “implied consent” law says that if you are lawfully arrested by an officer who has probable cause to believe that you have been driving under the influence of alcohol, then you consent to taking a chemical test of your breath for the purpose of determining your blood alcohol content (BAC)."
I was never arrested so that isn't true. Like I said taking a breathalyzer is not legally required in MS. However, I do believe that if I had refused to take a field sobriety test also, then he would've arrested me on implied consent.

That's my point dude. You're lucky he didn't arrest you when you refused the field breathalyzer. And if you turned down the breathalyzer at the station then it's a suspension of your license. It does give you more room the fight the DUI though.
