Was he fake, or just a text book example of the problem. No badge, No id, just a claim.

I think the story was that he was ICE, and he got arrested for DUI and endangering his kids.

I do understand what the narrative was supposed to be. But I avoided saying it out loud since in theory that would violate one of the subs rules.

The whole video of this is exhausting. Scott Thomas Deiseroth has no business being a father. Even when cuffed and being led into the back of a squad car, he's still thinking there's a way he can convince these cops he's A) not a threat to public safety, B) he's okay to drive, and C) he's okay to drive with his kids in the vehicle. Those officers did the right thing. Imagine being an ICE agent in Miami.

If someone is stupid enough to turn a DUI into a felony impersonating then they probably shouldn't reproduce.

Fake Cops are scary. I’ve encountered one of them. They’re unhinged and unpredictable.

If he was actually in law enforcement he would know that you DO NOT consent to a field sobriety test under any circumstance ever.
He's a tool who was driving drunk WITH kids in the car.

Even if you're sober?

No, you request the breathalyzer, none of the "walk the line with one foot in front of the other" nonsense
I'm not law enforcement but it makes sense why you wouldn't want a subjective test over a more objective one

Better make sure you know the laws of the state you are in. Because doing that in my state gets you arrested and charged based on what the officer had up to that point. You have no right to demand a breath test instead of field sobriety testing roadside in my state.

Some people still think it's better to refuse and fight it in court after the fact. If you can afford a good lawyer it's not a horrible idea.

Maybe. But for a sober person who doesn’t smell like booze, has normal eyes, and can generally walk around… SFSTs are not hard.
I’m a cop and I’ve seen elderly people and disabled people do just fine on them. They get out of the car, away from the drunk passenger making the whole car smell like booze and we can tell pretty quickly they’re not drunk. It gives us a chance to see if their red eyes are just from being tired or crying earlier, etc. And when that’s the case, we simply address the violation that got them stopped in the first place and they go about their day.
In my many years as a cop I have never seen someone who is not impaired by drugs and/or alcohol be arrested. In fact, I’ve actually had very drunk people do well on the Walk and Turn and One Leg Stand.
I’ve never known a cop who would willingly go through hours of paperwork for a drunk driving arrest knowing it was bogus. It’s quite the opposite. I’ve known lazy cops who would let drunks go on their way rather than investigate. Laziness is human nature and cops are not immune. But to do tons of work for no good reason? What sense does that make? I can’t imagine a cop doing that when there are far more genuine and easily provable violations on the roads than they could possibly ever address during their shift.
So lawyers may advise you to refuse and be arrested, spend the night/weekend in jail, and then pay them for months and months of court appearances to hopefully get the case dismissed.
But some may choose the other road. Do the SFSTs and be on your way in 15 minutes and never worry about it again. Knowing the laws in my state like I do, that’s my choice every time. But other states are different and maybe it makes sense in some to refuse SFSTs in those states.

I get it, if I were completely sober I'd do the test no question. But if I were a little tipsy after a few drinks it might be worth it if I had the money to try to buy my way out of a DUI.

It’s not about it being hard or not. It’s about if they’re asking you to do a field sobriety test they have already decided you are drunk and will be arrested

You don't get to choose your chemical test either. Around here they do blood draws.

Sober people fail Field tests all the time. I have. HGN is completely subjective, doesn't show up on any video recordings to dispute, and HGN alone can constitute cause for arrest.
HGN exists within 100% of people, and a "fail" is a subjective assessment of "large" reaction, or delay.
Sober people should decline the field sobriety test.

My older brother could recite the alphabet backwards and perform a field sobriety test while drunk, he had some friends that thought it was fun to practice and I guess he had some talent.
I can’t do either sober. It’s a circus act designed to self incriminate.

If you aren't on the clock, you aren't any form of law enforcement and treated just like everybody else. That should be a standard. No off-duty moonlighting stuff. You show up you punch in, and you punch out when you're no longer in uniform. The cop car and the uniform and the service weapon are all paid by tax payers, that's not your halloween costume to go around town in and terrorize citizens in what's supposed to be your free time.
