Finger to Nose
Another commonly used non-standardized field sobriety test is the finger to nose test. This test is a basic test that requires the subject to close his eyes and then touch the tip of his nose with the tip of his index finger, alternating hands. NHTSA research and studies revealed that the finger to nose test, along with the Rhomberg Test, only indicated the presence of alcohol, and "did not increase the predictive ability of testing."
