Record
the subject's performance separately.
For
each clue, record how often it appears with a (√) check mark.
If
subject sways, indicate how often with a (√) check mark.
Indicate

In
addition, if the subject puts the foot down during the test, record when it
happened.
For

thousand twenty.”
If

At
end of the test, examine each factor and determine how many clues have been
recorded.
Remember, each clue may appear several times, but still only constitutes one
clue.
Officers
who are video recording the Standardized Field Sobriety Tests may choose to
document
any observed clues by voicing them into the recording as the clues are
observed.
