CHILLICOTHE, OH - At 7:04PM on January 6th, 2020, Chillicothe police received a call regarding a car accident outside a local bar. Police interviewing the man whose car was hit claimed that he had to stand in front of the suspect's vehicle who backed into him to prevent the driver from fleeing. After the police verified that the damage on the caller's vehicle contrasted with the suspect's side of the story, the officer isolated the suspect from the situation. Miranda rights were read to the suspect as soon as he was separated from the scene of the accident. A field sobriety test was initiated shortly after interviewing the suspect who stated that he had planned to drive away because all he had heard was, "a little bit of a tap," and that the other patron's vehicle was not in his parking space. The horizontal gaze nystagmus test showed that the suspect was unable to smoothly follow the officer's pen and consistently moved his head for the duration of the test even though he was instructed to follow the object with his eyes only. During the walk-and-turn test, the suspect did not follow instructions given to by the officer. The suspect was unable to walk in a straight line and also failed to touch heel-to-toes with each step as per the officer's instructions. The suspect was unable to balance while performing the one-legged stand test for any period of time. Following the field sobriety test, the suspect was arrested for operating a vehicle under the influence (OVI) and for improper backing whereupon arrangements were made to tow the suspect's vehicle. The suspect eventually pled guilty to OVI and was charged a total of $711 between fines and court fees, senteced to 1 day in jail (credited from spending the night in jail after his arrest), and had to enroll in a driver intervention program. The result of the suspect's chemical urine test was .242 g alcohol/mL. That is three times the legal limit to drive in the State of Ohio (.08 g alcohol/mL).

BELLBROOK, OH - On February 1st, 2020 at 5:00PM, Bellbrook Police received a call regarding a person drinking alcohol in a Dollar General parking lot. The officer followed the suspect from the store a few blocks away where the pursuing officer ran the driver's information and found that the suspect's driver's license was revoked and never reinstated. During the initial contact with the driver, the officer noted that he had slurred speech and that his eyes were glasslike. The suspect then stated that he needed to take blood pressure medication immediately. The officer told the suspect that he could take his medication after performing her tests and then asked the suspect to step out of the vehicle to which he did so. Once outside the vehicle, the suspect performed the horizontal gaze nystagmus test. During the exercise, the officer noted that the suspect was unable to follow her pen smoothy and that distinct nystaggmus was observed at maximum deviation in both of the suspect's eyes. Soon after completing the test, the suspect grabbed his chest and stated that he did not feel well. The suspect claimed that he was having a medical incident and requested that an ambulance be called. The officer then called for a medic. The suspect claimed that he would be unable to perform any more tests and that he needed to sit down. The primary officer along with her sergeant helped the suspect take a knee on the ground as the paramedics were arriving. After emergency medical personnel made contact with the suspect, he was transported to Miami Valley Hospital South where the suspect provided a urine sample to test for alcohol. The sample yielded a result of .266% BAC which is over three times the legal limit to drive in the State of Ohio. A search of the vehicle found that the suspect was in possession of an empty 24 oz beer can and a plastic cup with alcohol inside.

DELRAY BEACH, FL - At 4:30PM on January 4th, 2020, bystanders who call into dispatch flagged down a Delray Beach police officer who claimed that a driver and his passenger were slumped over at the wheel passed out in their vehicle. Upon awakening, the suspect drove off down the road, but the witnesses gave the officer the suspect's license plate. After relaying to dispatch, another officer found the suspect and initiated a traffic stop. The suspect stepped out of the vehicle and his identification was verified. The officers observed an empty alcoholic beverage in the car to which the suspect claimed was not recently consumed. Upon medical evaluation, the responding firefighters told the officers that the suspect's eyes were "pinpoint." A second officer asked the suspect if he would be willing to perform a field sobriety test to which the suspect consented. During the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, the suspect was observed moving his head to track the officer's pen. Nystagmus was observed in the suspect along with a delayed reaction when tracking the object. The suspect asked how he perform to which the officer told the suspect he would tell him at the end. The suspect interrupted the officer at several points in the instructions during the walk-and-turn test. The suspect counted out loud and took nine steps forward, turned around, then walked back taking 11 steps while continuing to count to 20. The suspect demonstrated proficiency in the one-legged stand, but did not point his foot as instructed. For the finger to nose test, the suspect did not tilt his head back and hesitated when asked to place his right finger on his nose twice in a row by initially moving his left arm. The suspect also did not keep his eyes closed during the exercise. When counting from 1 to 50, the suspect did not tilt his head back and close his eyes as instructed. The suspect proceeded to count to 60 instead of 50 as instructed. The suspect was arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) and was read his Miranda rights. The suspect asked if he could get the scores from the test to which the officer told him that there were no scores. At the station, the suspect refused to submit a breath alcohol sample.

ROCK ISLAND, IL - At 1:22AM on January 26th, 2020, a Rock Island Police Officer pulled over an erratic driver with significant damage to his truck. The suspect informed the officer that he had just broke up with his girlfriend and had left from the bar after she had left him. When questioned by the officer if he had hit a utility pole nearby, the suspect adamently denied that he had done so, but rather that he had hit a deer two weeks prior. The officer inquired several more times, whereupon the suspect said, "I am not going to lie to you," while reaffirming his story. The suspect later admitted to having "three stouts and one IPA." The suspect was then placed in the officer's vehicle to be transported to the police station to conduct a field sobriety test (FST). The officer then told the suspect that his license plate was found at the scene of the accident and that he did in fact hit the light pole to which the suspect did not reply. Upon realizing that there was a space in the parking lot that was cleared, the suspect was taken out of the police cruiser to perform the FST. The officer asked the suspect if he had any vision problems that would affect his abilities to perform the horizontal gaze nystagmus test. The suspect claimed to be color blind, but stated that his vision was sufficient enough to do as the officer instructed. During the test, the suspect continually moved his head when tracking the officer's pen and displayed the inability to smoothly follow the object. Nystagmus was observed throughout the exercise with a jerking motion at maximum deviation. The suspect told the officer that he particularly did not like being in cold weather. The suspect was then placed into the starting position for the walk-and-turn test upon the officer's instruction. Once in position, the suspect attempted the test, but lost balance and had to be instructed to go back into the starting position. The suspect asked for instructions while performing the test and took wide, sweeping steps while performing the exercise. The suspect once again told the officer that he did not like being outside in cold weather. After the officer explained the one-legged balance test to the suspect, he told the suspect to begin. The suspect was unable to balance without swaying, had to be told to look down at his feet, did not count the number 14 correctly, and admitted to losing his balance after counting to the number 21. The suspect apologized and blamed his performance on being frostbitten when he was younger. The officer arrested the suspect for driving under the influence (DUI) and told him that based off the test he had shown signs of impairment. After informing the suspect that he would take a breathalyzer test at the station, the suspect told the officer that he wanted to perform a preliminary breath test on scene. The suspect told the officer that he appreciated that he had taken the keys out and locked the door of his vehicle because he loved that truck more than he did his life. Following a search of the suspect's person, nothing was found to be illegal in his possession. At the station, the suspect consented to a breath alcohol sample. The breathalyzer test yielded a result of .160% BrAC. This is twice the legal limit to drive in the State of Illinois.

OBERLIN, OH - At 4:24PM on January 24th, 2020, Oberlin Police Officers responded to a call of a man parked on the shoulder on the wrong side of the road at the intersection of State Route 58 and US Route 20. As the officer approached the vehicle, he opened the door and began questioning the suspect how he ended up on the shoulder of the opposite side of the road. The officer observed an empty alcoholic beverage in the center console of the suspect's vehicle. The suspect did not why he was parked where he was and admitted to consuming alcoholic beverages. The suspect also stated that he was "between places" and lived, "nowhere." Once outside the vehicle, the suspect admitted to the officer that he had drank "a handful" of beers. The officer then asked the suspect if he would participate in a field sobriety test, but he declined. In response, the officer arrested the suspect for operating a vehicle under the influence (OVI). While being processed, dispatch alerted the officers on scene that the suspect had a prior OVI conviction back in 2008. Furthermore, the officers received word from the EMT's that the suspect had told them he had just came from a party and was "pretty lit." Because the suspect had been convicted of OVI in 2008, he was charged with OVI - 1st offense within 10 years. At the station, the suspect refused to provide a breath alcohol sample.

VAIL, CO - At 3:57PM on January 17th, 2020, a driver approached an officer to inquire when a pass would reopen such that he could travel to a location 30miles east of where they were. In the discussion, the officer smelled a strong odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. The officer asked the suspect if he had been smoking to which the driver claimed he and his two passengers had smoked a joint an hour ago. The officer asked the suspect to pull over near the sidewalk of the bus station where he was assisting in traffic control. After verifying the suspect's information, the officer asked him to step out of the vehicle for further questioning. The suspect, a tourist from Minnesota, reaffirmed that he and his friends smoked a joint earlier in the day and enjoyed the scenery of the local area. At this point, the officer began moving forward with voluntary roadside maneuvers. The horizontal gaze nystagmus test was conducted first where the suspect had difficulty keeping his head still along with being unable to smoothly follow the officer's finger. During the walk-and-turn test, the suspect followed the correct amount of steps and walked in a straight line, but failed to follow directions when he turned around on a pivot rather than taking a series of small steps. In the one-legged stand test, the suspect had to be motioned to look at his foot during the test. Furthermore, the suspect skipped the number 12 and stuttered on two additional numbers. While estimating the passage of 30 seconds, the suspect began counting out loud after specifically being instructed not to do so. The suspect was also observed swaying and ultimately the test lasted 45 seconds. After the roadside maneuvers were completed, the officer asked the suspect from a scale of 0 - 10 how high he was. The suspect initially said, "less than three," but reiterated that he was more likely at "about three." At this point, the officer arrested the suspect for driving under the influence of a controlled susbstance (DUID). While in the patrol car, the suspect consented to a blood chemical test to be taken at Vail Health Hospital. The results of the blood test yielded 7.9 ng/mL of THC. In Colorado, the legal limit to drive is 5.0 ng/mL of THC and the penalties for DUID are identical to DUI.

ELKHART LAKE, WI - At 12:33AM on June 7th, 2020, Elkhart Lake Police observed a man continuously revving his vehicle loudly near the downtown area of the village. Due to the loud, disruptive sound of the vehicle, the officer began following the driver. The officer observed the driver crossing over the center line and abruptly changing speed. The officer then initiated her emergency lights whereupon the vehicle traveled another 500 ft before stopping. During contact with the driver, the officer smelled a moderate odor of alcohol coming from the vehicle. The driver admitted to drinking earlier in the evening and having just left a confectionery store that had closed several hours earlier. The officer also observed that the driver had bloodshot and glossy eyes. Throughout the conversation, the suspect stumbled and had trouble pronouncing his words multiple times. After running the suspect's information, the officer asked him to step out of the vehicle to perform field sobriety tests at the firehouse across the road from where they were stopped. During the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, the officer observed the suspect being unable to smoothly follow the stimulus. The suspect was swaying during the exercise. For the walk-and-turn test, the suspect missed contacting heel-to-toe several times, lost balance during his turn, and had his hands out to his side for balance. During the one-legged balance test, the suspect had to be reminded to keep his hands close to his sides and failed to keep balance on the sixth second of the test. Following the field sobriety tests, the second officer asked the suspect if he would take a preliminary breath test (PBT), to which he refused. The suspect was then arrested for operating while intoxicated (OWI). While in custody, the suspect again refused to consent to a blood-alcohol content sample. Because this was the suspect's first OWI offense, he was released to his parents instead of going to the police station.

FENNIMORE, WI - On the night of January 14th, 2020 at 10:45PM, a Fennimore Police Officer pulled over a vehicle for crossing the center line and taking a turn too close to the shoulder. The suspect told the officer she was driving the passenger's boyfriend's vehicle to get gas and cigarettes. Both the suspect and passenger struggled to find proper documentation of the truck which she claimed they were driving. While stopped, the officer observed the suspect shaking to which she replied that she was cold. The officer observed track marks on the suspect and asked her to step out of the vehicle. When questioned, the suspect repeatedly denied taking drugs and did not know why a vein was raised that would have been indicative of drug use. The officer asked the suspect to perform field sobriety tests to which she agreed. In the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, the officer observed that the suspect was unable to follow his finger smoothly. At one point the suspect had to be told to continue following the officer's finger after she had stopped. A jerking motion in the suspect's eyes was observed at maximum deviation. During the walk-and-turn test, the suspect moved into the starting position during the instructions. Following the instructions, the officer observed that she did not remain in the starting position after having been told to do so. The suspect proceeded to take only eight steps on her first pass, failed to count out loud, and pivoted on the turn instead of taking small steps as instructed. In the one-legged balance test, the suspect elevated higher than six inches off the ground and was observed swaying while she attempted to balance. During the lack of convergence test, the suspect again showed signs of impairment by not being able to track the officer's finger smoothly. The suspect was also unable to follow the officer's finger as he converged close to her nose. In the Romberg Test, the suspect was observed fluttering her eyes and was stopped by the officer after 80 seconds after being instructed to estimate the passage of 30 seconds. The Romberg Test was repeated and swaying was still observed. Following the field sobriety test, the suspect denied partaking in any drugs or consuming alcohol at any point. The suspect was arrested and transported to a local hospital and consented to a chemical blood test. The suspect's blood yielded 280 ng/mL of methamphetamine and 54 ng/mL of amphetamine. The suspect was arrested and charged with operating a vehicle while under the influence (OWI, drug related).

VAIL, CO - At 12:40AM on January 13th, 2020, a driver was pulled over by a Vail Police Officer for swerving and improperly engaging his turn signal. The officer discovered that the suspect was an international student from Argentina and in Vail while on winter break. After verifying the suspect's information, he was asked to step out of the vehicle for further questioning. During the investigation, the suspect admitted to drinking five alcoholic beverages throughout the night between friend's houses and local nightclubs and also to giving his 19-year-old brother his identification such that he would be able to buy alcohol at the clubs. Before starting the roadside maneuvers, the officer confirmed that the foreign speaking suspect understood that the tests were voluntary and that his experience with education in the US was sufficient enough to comprehend what the officer asked of him. During the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, the suspect moved his head on more than one occasion and displayed a jerking movement in his eyes at maximum deviation. The suspect was observed having difficulties focusing as the test was administered. After the officer demonstrated the walk-and-turn test, the suspect began shouting the numbers as he was walking, walked 10 steps, and at one point lost footing. In the one-legged balance test, the suspect did not count correctly, had his arms out for balance, and had to be reminded to look down at his foot during the exercise. At the conclusion of the roadside maneuvers, the suspect was questioned again on how much he had to drink throughout the day. The suspect then said that he had three beers for the entire day. The suspect admitted that he still should not have been drinking and driving, but he had not drank enough to where his abilities to drive would be affected. When offered to take a breathalyzer in the field, the suspect inquired more about what the preliminary breath test would reveal. After understanding the consequences, the suspect chose not to move forward with taking a breathalyzer and was arrested for driving under the influence (DUI). While being placed in the back of the police cruiser, the officer asked if he understood what he was saying to him over the duration of the roadside maneuvers to which the suspect answered, "Yes." Once at the station, the suspect provided a breath sample at 1:55AM which yielded a result of .167% BrAC which is twice the legal limit to drive in the State of Colorado.

GLOVERSVILLE, NY - On February 3rd, 2020 at 8:46PM, Gloversville Police observed a driver taking a turn too wide and failing to return to their lane. A traffic stop was initiated by the officer near a convenience store. Upon making contact with the suspect, the officer noticed a strong odor of alcohol coming from the vehicle. The suspect stated he had four beers and was coming from a friend's house. The suspect was asked to step out of the vehicle and consented to a field sobriety test. During the horizontal gaze nystagmus test, the suspect was observed having a lack of pursuit and had maximum deviation in both eyes. The suspect was swaying during the exercise. During the walk-and-turn test, the suspect had difficulties touching heel-to-toe and removed himself from the precribed foot placement while the officer demonstrated the test.
