Some of my friends were out at a bar, and one of them was really wrecked. They decided to head back home, and had to stop at a gas station for this guy to "relieve" himself, but the cashiers called the police and said they had been driving under influence ( the really wrecked one fell into a chip display, which prompted the phone call ). The driver had NOT been drinking, and the cashiers have no solid evidence that the driver had been drinking. When the police arrived, they all left and continued driving home, without seeing the cops again until they were parked in their own driveway -- which is when the police tried to give the driver a breathalyzer test. He wasn't thrilled about the idea, as he doesn't like "unclean" things ( public bathrooms, and the like ), hadn't been drinking, and refused. Even though he explained this to the officers, he now has a court date for "refusal of breathalyzer" charges in September. Are these charges valid in this situation?
