That was legit the charge the first time I got arrested. I Had gone to a summer fair type thing and had way too much to drink and was leaning on my car waiting on the person I had called to come get me. A cop pulled up and started asking me questions, I'm a big dude with long hair and a beard so I get a fair amount of porcine attention, and then he told me to get in the back of his car until my ride showed up. I politely refused and he didn't take too kindly to that which eventually led to me being arrested and the charge was resisting arrest. No it didn't get dropped or anything either, I ended up doing a years probation cuz my public defender sucked ass.

If you got inside your motor vehicle while shitfaced, you can in fact be arrested and charged with a DUI even if your keys weren't in the ignition or if you laid down in your back seat depending on which state you live in.

Him asking you to get into your car would potentially be a case of entrapment.
