Actually, in the case of a DUI the cops
PREFER you call a lawyer. If the cop wants you to take an intoxilizer test (different than the roadside breathlizer test), it's against the law to decline. A lawyer cannot instruct a client to perform an illegal action, so the lawyer
HAS to advise a client to take the intoxilzer test.
(Laws in your area may vary from mine of course)
