On May 25, 2017 an officer who had just made a DUI arrest was driving with his arrestee in the back seat cage when he witnessed a driver heading the wrong direction of travel – a high probability indicator of chemical impairment — or old age. Either way, danger.
Taking his job seriously, the trooper swung around and made a DUI-stop-within-a-DUI-stop… but he was surprised to discover that the woman he pulled over, pulled off the impossible: she came out of the standardized field sobriety test battery wearing only the bracelets she started with.

OMG what just happened here?!!
"I smell weed in the car"
This officer is WIRED.
Minorities as cops tisk tisk
He tried everything and failed lol.
Does anyone else fear they would randomly fail one of these test when not impaired? My vertigo having butt does lol
Let's see, you're not impaired what can I charge you with, hmmmm!
He has many issues
Just give the blow test first.
Officer is just doing his job.
That cop tried damn hard to get her.
You know he was upset! lol Goody goody!
Did ya'll notice a motorcyle was coming at her, she could have killed him.
Cop is a pos. Walking backwards in the dark in straight line is something most ppl cannot do sober.
He made her stand in one leg over 15 seconds. A total criminal looking for false arrest!
You guys are acting like this cop had no reason to believe she’s intoxicated. She was driving on the wrong side of the road! And wasn’t even aware of it! And as soon as he realized she’s not impaired, he backed off. Like wtf was he supposed to do
At 6:45 I wish she would have picked her leg up and started playing the guitar on it. "Is that high enough?"
I'll never understand why they do all the hokey pokey bullshit feel subrity tests amd waste all that time….when they can just bust out the breathalizer test amd take 5 seconds to have you blow in it and get all the information they need….a simple ur drunk or not drunk
🤔🤨😠😡- my reaction from start to end with this cop. He kept changing his instructions???
(He would stop a dog and try to arrest for Jay walking- geez)
I had a cop come to my car jacked off aderall or something he was talking so fast and slurring his words but he was a homie and let me go
THE FIELD SOBRIETY IS ONLY BUILDING A CASE FOR THE OFFICER. DO NOT AGREE TO PERFORM IT.
you wont see this in the news
This guy need more training. Mabe she can give some lessons.
She walked heel to toe then toe to heel walking backwards perfect.Cop says she didn't do it right and he wont count that one against her. WTF. That way is way harder. She should have got bonus points for that.
He was so mad she passes he wanted her to do it again .
This dude needs to be fired.
Why breath test when she passed all other, no control issues with cops these days. Lol. Lol
Have you been sipping on Grandpa's drink there who did leave there 😎
Just like all of these other tests, they are involuntary, hmm…why didn't you say that in the beginning?
officer: "where do you work at?"
Her: "at a dance studio"
Me: coughs stripper coughs 2:10
What the hell did he say about he would send her a ticket in the mail possibly. This guy's a joker
Well I've only gotten to where he's lecturing her at the back of the trunk at this point. If he gives her a ticket after putting her through that test and then lecturing her he's a really bad cop. We always had a rule if we lecture them they don't get a ticket if we don't lecture them they can get a ticket.
Oh my God he's having to do a breath test after that. That's ridiculous
And he makes her lift your leg and count to 10,000
Being a former police officer I cannot believe that he kept her going. Give me a break he couldn't do it as good as she did.
This d*ck shouldn't even have a badge. Terrible police work. It was almost like he was pissed off that she WASN'T drunk. He still ended up barking directives at her like a prck.
The cop clearly did more testing than he needed to but I can kinda understand where he's coming from. This lady was on the wrong side of the road which is extremely dangerous and anyone with any driving knowledge could realize it. Letting her go there would mean letting someone who was literally on the wrong side of the road back onto the road to continue driving. He could've stopped at the walking or just did the breath test but this girl still made a huge driving error.
cops like this deserve you know what
Did you stop someone and give them tests when u have someone in the backseat for the same thing??? WTF!!!!
At first I thought maybe she was British or something and just used to driving on the wrong side. Then I realized she was a dance instructor, so she could probably do all this shit drunk while blindfolded.
That cop was a bit of a dick but being so strict will hopefully make her remember this incident better!
FSTs are ridiculous, never submit to one, ask for a breathalizer if you are sure you are sober. There's been a lot of studies, and they demonstrate that failing a FST is extremely easy even if sober and in the best circumstances. Kudos for this girl for passing it anyway 😀
As soon as she did the backwords steps the cop knew he was done for. His tone completely changes after that
Why did the cop ask her to take her glasses off? If I take my glasses off it upsets my sense of balance all to hell.
He was determined to have her fail… Hell I can't walk heel to toe forward while sober, much less backwards while counting… Why do the police waste time with those test when they literally have something u can blow In and show ur alcohol level? If the person refuses the breath test, then do the other sobriety test… The breath test isn't 100% accurate either… Drinking and driving is wrong And could kill innocent people, not just your dumb ass…. So can inattentive drivers.. nothing can possibly be more important than the road, other drivers and the steering wheel under you hands… You get a txt, phone call or anything that takes your eyes off the road, if only for a second, then find a safe place and pull over… If not possible then wait til you can… Smdh common sense isn't so common these days… This lady tho wasn't under the influence… So why all the test when she could have easily blown in the breath test?? If u still feel like she isn't alert and safe to drive, then make her preform the other test….
