-> Certianly not true in Illinois.
-> You are given a "reasonable" number of phone calls.  And to my 18
-> years experience, NO ONE has ever been denied an additional phone
-> call, or calls. If you have the dime, they'll let you charge calls
-> all night long.
This, of course, may differ from state to state.  It may even differ in
the same locality from time to time, depending on how the cop has been
getting along at home . . .
-> You may not be arrested right away, they may just interview you and
-> send you home and let the state's attorny review the information and
-> charge you at a later date.
or not.  Best to plan for the worst.
