Question

which of the following does not constitute obstruction of a law enforcement officer?

a. stating a false name when asked by a law enforcement officer

b. refusing to take a breathalyzer test when pulled over by an officer

c. giving false information to an officer when asked about a crime scene

d. withholding information about a crime scene when asked by an officer

Explanation:

• Option a: Falsifying identity to law enforcement is obstruction as it hinders their duty to identify/process individuals.
• Option b: Refusing a Breathalyzer (in relevant legal contexts) obstructs DUI investigation, interfering with officer’s law - enforcement role.
• Option c: Giving false info about a crime scene misleads officers, impeding their investigation, so it’s obstruction.
• Option d: Withholding info (unless one has a legal obligation to disclose, like being a witness with a duty, which isn’t assumed here generally) doesn’t actively obstruct the officer’s actions in the same way as lying or falsifying. One isn’t legally required to volunteer info unless compelled, so this is less likely to be obstruction.

Answer:

d. withholding information about a crime scene when asked by an officer
