Are the police allowed to give you a breath tested if you are drunk on a bicycle? And could he get points on his license?

To add some clear legal legislation to this, and explain it properly: This is the relevant part of the road traffic act - [https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Eliz2/8-9/16/part/I/crossheading/offences-connected-with-riding-of-pedal-cycles/enacted](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/Eliz2/8-9/16/part/I/crossheading/offences-connected-with-riding-of-pedal-cycles/enacted) This bit: >A person who, when riding a bicycle or tricycle, not being a motor vehicle, on a road or other public place, is unfit to ride through drink or drugs shall be liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding thirty pounds, or in the case of a second or subsequent conviction to a fine not exceeding thirty pounds or to imprisonment for a term not exceeding three months. I believe the fine is now £1000, or £2500, as those numbers get changed externally to this law. I'm also aware there's something else you can be charged with (possibly the "wanton and furious" laws? which can get you two years in jail.) In terms of the breathalyzer: I believe there is no law stating you must provide breath as that law is for motor vehicles. (I could be wrong on this.) So they can ask you, and you can refuse. But they obviously won't tell you that. They'll hope you comply. The reason they did it is to have evidence he was drunk for if/when they fine him. Just a reminder too: Cyclists can and do kill pedestrians. Last year we upped our laws and if you kill someone on a bike you can get a life sentence if you were doing something dangerous. (eg. being drunk.)
