“Upon arrest” is doing a lot of work here. BEFORE an arrest, the 5th must be explicitly invoked, perhaps only if you have answered some other questions though. See the case law I linked.

The 4th (unreasonable search and seizure) is generally clearer, but I don’t know how it works online “stop and ID” states. IMO those laws are unconstitutional, but I haven’t looked into it because I don’t live in one.
