There are four tenets for suspicion of drunkenness: slurred speech, redness of the eyes, odor on the breath, and gaited walk. If you refuse to speak, pop 10 tic-tacs, wear dark glasses, and refuse to exit the car, the PC is moot. They usually try to get you out of the car with a ruse such as "I'd like to test the brake pedal" at which time you simply slide over into the passenger seat.

My thoughts? No. The thoughts of a reserve Orange County Sherrif's Deputy in CA I talked to a few years ago.
