It is not uncommon for a sober motorist to exhibit many of the same clues police use to identify impaired drivers during a routine traffic stop. The procedures used in the administration of standardized field sobriety tests were developed in a lab omitting the fear of instant incarceration as a consequence of failure. The physiological response to being pulled over by police often activates the sympathetic nervous system triggering acute stress responses that mimic signs of impairment. If driving privileges are suspended for refusing to submit a breath sample for chemical testing or for registering a minimum alcohol concentration of .15 there are important filing deadlines that if missed will disqualify eligibility for the temporary restoration of driving privileges pending a contested case hearing in the South Carolina Administrative Law Court.
