Description
We granted certiorari in these cases to consider the constitutional issues that have been raised by the imposition of roadside sobriety tests on persons suspected of driving under the influence of intoxicating liquors or drugs. The central issue presented by each of these cases, which we have consolidated for the purpose of this opinion, is whether a person must be given the warnings directed by Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 16 L.Ed.2d 694 (1966), prior to a request for submission to a roadside sobriety test. We now reverse the suppression orders issued in People v. Ramirez, People v. Luna, and People v. Zepeda,*fn1 and affirm the district court's denial of suppression in Cordova v. District Court, Anderson v. People, and Edwards v. People.*fn2 Because the factual background which created the constitutional issues which are now before us in each of these consolidated cases is similar, we will specifically address only the fact situation presented in People v. Ramirez.
