The Subjectivity of Field Sobriety Tests
Field Sobriety Tests rely heavily on an officer's subjective assessment, which can vary from one individual to another. Despite guidelines, the administration of these tests can be inconsistent, and personal bias can play a role in the interpretation of results.
It's crucial to recognize that factors such as stress, nervousness, or fatigue can affect a person's performance during an FST, leading to falsely high indications of impairment. Our attorneys are adept at pinpointing these discrepancies and advocating for clients who have been unfairly judged.
External Factors Affecting FST Performance
External elements such as road conditions, weather, and lighting can all play a part in the outcome of an FST. A slippery surface or poor lighting can make it difficult for a sober person to pass the test, let alone someone who may have consumed alcohol.
Our experts understand these conditions and work tirelessly to ensure that such factors are considered when defending our clients. Don't let these variables be the deciding factor in your case; Brunswick & Assoc Pllc is here to help you fight any oversights.
Physical and Medical Conditions Impacting Test Results
Physical impairments or medical conditions can greatly influence one's ability to perform an FST. Conditions such as a balance disorder, physical disability, or even footwear may lead to a misinterpretation of sobriety levels.
The legal team connected through Brunswick & Assoc Pllc takes into account all potential physical or medical influences that can skew FST results. Trust in our experts to ensure your personal circumstances are not overlooked.

Pointing out the statistical margin of error in FST results can be a game-changer in court. Authorities consider them reliable, but with the right defense, their infallibility can be legitimately questioned.

Our lawyers are advocates for individuals unaware of their options when faced with FSTs. We stress the importance of informed consent and its role in protecting your legal rights.
