If you are stopped and suspected of driving high:

Remain Calm and Polite: Cooperate with the officer’s requests (e.g., providing your license and registration).
You Have the Right to Remain Silent: You are not obligated to answer questions beyond basic identification. Politely state that you wish to remain silent.
Field Sobriety Tests (FSTs) are Voluntary: You can refuse to participate in roadside field sobriety tests. This refusal cannot be used against you in court, although the initial stop and observations can still be factors.
Implied Consent: Michigan has an implied consent law, meaning by driving on public roads, you’ve consented to chemical tests (blood, breath, or urine) if lawfully arrested for a suspected OWI. Refusal to submit to a chemical test after a lawful arrest can lead to immediate driver’s license suspension, even if you are not ultimately convicted of OWI.
Document Everything: If possible, note the time, location, officers involved, and any details about the stop.
If Arrested, Do Not Resist: Comply with the arrest procedures. If you do resist you need to call us ASAP.
