| The officer must demonstrate this. The suspect should be told not to start the test until told to do so and acknowledge that they understand the instructions. This acknowledgement should be documented. There are no scoring factors involved until the suspect is into the next stage which is called the Balance and Counting Stage, unless the suspect can not perform the test at all. In this case, the suspect would be given a maximum score of four points. This would necessitate explanation on the part of the officer. It cannot be scored simply when the suspect refuses to perform the test. |
