While talking to the driver, the officer noticed that her eyes were watery and that she slurred her words as she spoke.

When asked, the woman initially denied drinking that evening, before quickly admitting that she had “a couple”. When asked if she was willing to participate in Standardized Field Sobriety Testing, the woman refused, insisting that she “wasn’t going to be arrested.” At that time, she was arrested and charged with Failure to Maintain Lane and DUI.
