This not only ensures the safety of the police officer but can significantly reduce the chances of having your car towed should you be arrested. Roll down your windows and breathe. Stay calm and pop a breathe mint or piece of gum if you may have had a drink or two. Whatever the case do not admit to drinking any alcoholic beverages. Incriminating yourself helps make the police officers job of arresting you that much easier. You do not have to lie. The Fifth Amendment (link) gives you the right to remain silent. Be cooperative but only answer questions when neccesary. Do not in any way provide evidence that the officer can later use against you.
