True, you can also be arrested for getting out of the car and refusing instructions to get back in it.  It's called obstruction, anything that delays or prevents a peace officer from carrying out their duties can result in an arrest for obstruction.  Whether the DA files it is another matter, but you are certainly within your rights to arrest someone for it.


Quite sincerely, and I mean this, people who work in the criminal justice system need to be very careful when giving advice to others.  You give out bad information and someone who was privy to it can make a mistake that will really cost them.
