Sobriety test: A way to check if someone has had too much alcohol to drink. There are different types of sobriety tests, like tests that check how well someone can move and tests that use a machine to measure the amount of alcohol in someone's breath.
A sobriety test is a way to check if someone is drunk or under the influence of drugs. There are different types of sobriety tests, but they all aim to determine if a person is fit to drive or operate machinery.
These tests are used by law enforcement officers to determine if someone is too impaired to drive. If a person fails a sobriety test, they may be arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) or driving while intoxicated (DWI).
For example, if a person is pulled over for swerving on the road and smells like alcohol, the police may ask them to take a sobriety test. If the person fails the coordination test and breathalyzer, they may be arrested for DUI.
