So he tells me to get out of my car and tells me he's going to give me a field sobriety test.

The story should have ended here. Don't agree to take these. Ever. Once they decide to get you out out of the car and have you stand on one foot and say the alphabet backwards and all that nonsense, it's 90% likely they have already decided they are going to arrest you and just want get some more evidence. Don't give it to them.

Good advice. Even if they take him in and he blows a 0.03, failing field sobriety tests can be used against him. Of course, refusal would have resulted in sure arrest, and I'm frankly not sure how he avoided arrest, since he failed two of the tests.
