I can see it now: "OK, buddy, I've been watching you cough and sneeze for the last few miles. I'm going to have take you in. Put down the Kleenex and step out of the car."
I don't believe I've ever seen anyone with altered mental status due to rhinitis. On the other hand, you may be on to something. Perhaps Michael's defense team should claim he had a cold, and that's why he failed his field sobriety test. Certainly more plausible than the Scott Peterson defense.
