So yes, submission to police officers even when you're well within your rights is good advice. But it shouldn't be. The cops in my town had the habit of rousting high school parties. They'd show up with a claim of a noise complaint and then buffalo the kids to all line up and blow on the breathalyzer. I had told my daughter she had no obligation to do so if she was not driving. One night around midnight I got a call from a flustered Police sargeant who said they were at this house and she refused to blow. I said something like, "well good for her, and I'm instructing you now you aren't to ask her again." He fussed and puffed, but knew he had no right to do what he was doing and backed down.
