Me and my girlfriend We’re parked car off in gas station parking lot, eating food and then police arrived they said someone called and said we were doing drugs which we weren’t. They made me hop out the car, and given breathalyzer which I easily passed but then said they calling someone to do more tests. Another cop shows up and tells me they’re doing standard field sobriety test (SFST). I work long hrs at my work and also have 2 diseases diabetes/MS which i told them, but they didn’t care. I was very cold standing outside the whole time and told officers that too, they disregarded this and continued with test. After completing 3 tests I overheard the officer saying I failed one test and was given a 24hr driving prohibition. Also, they searched my car and found nothing. Now this will be on my record and makes me look bad. Should I fight this because I don’t feel it’s fair and they just power tripping?
I just realized they went through my trunk, done they need a warrant?

I’ve never heard of a driving probation. Was there some sort of paper he gave you that said anything about it
Yeah, you’ll need a Canadian cop to comment because this isn’t remotely how we do it in the US.
