If the police stop you, you could tell them...
"I hereby assert my Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate myself; I demand that my attorney be present at any further questioning. Please ask me no further questions until my attorney is here. I refuse to consent to any searches of my person, my premises or my vehicles."Be non-confrontative and apologetic, "Oh, I am sorry but my lawyer said, ...." Or, print this page out and hand this statement to the police if and when you are stopped by the police.
Assert your rights before you lose your freedom!
Be aware that if you refuse to take a Breathalyzer test if you are stopped on a potential driving while under the influence charge, your license is likely to be suspended for from 1 year up to 3 years depending upon your driving record and if the officer had the legal right to request that you take the Breathalyzer test.
When a case is not prosecuted for many years through the fault of
the government the case can be dismissed because of the failure of the
government to vigorously and speedily prosecute.
