I've been let go.

I had a cop pull me over once in my Jeep. Said I went left of center down the road a little ways. Then he tells me that he had a Jeep (so he knows they don't always steer the best). I told him I had a few beers that day, which I did. I did the pen test, the walk the line test, etc...Then he told me I passed. After that, he asked if I would take a breathalizer at the car "just to see how bad I really was". I didn't really think I needed it, but agreed after he told me that the result was not admissable in court. Turns out I blew a .065 or something. He let me go. I'm not sure what would have happened had I blew over .08. I'm sure I would have then been hauled in to take a test at the jail or something.

Sarge, maybe you can answer this one for me: What are you guys looking for with the pen test? I've passed this test twice now (and haven't failed yet) although the first time I was pretty drunk, and only 20 at the time also. The first time, the cop held the pen way out to the side. I couldn't even see it, but I just kept looking that way. I was just wondering what the cops are looking for with this test. Thanks.
