That big ass fire truck is not totaled
Everybody born after 2005 seems to have severe anxiety issues.
Why is it that many cops have speech issues? They speed through, fumble and conjunct their words. Someone needs to tell them to slow down, take a breath, gather their thoughts and then speak.
What are “hear to toe steps†and “fum fum?†Has this occifer been drinking?
Wow that’s ridiculous just another spoiled little girl that mommy and daddy probably saved and bought her another car dwi is a misdemeanor risking killing people this 19 yr old kid could have killed a lot of innocent people that night I think dwi should be a felony
It takes a long time to manufacture a new firetruck
I know the girl who crashed into the fire truck was in the wrong but for almost her entire encounter with the male officer she was as respectful and cooperative as she could be especially after drinking and that cop was pretty rude to her, he ran through the instructions so fast and so SLURRED himself that I could barley understand him stone cold sober and then gets frustrated with her for asking questions to make sure she understood and can do it just as described? I understand he may have to do a hundred field sobriety tests in a day, but you chose to be a cop, you are aware that sometimes you’re seeing people at their worst or on their worst day, and I would have understood if she had a huge attitude, was being disrespectful or hateful and nasty towards him, but part of you’re job is also to have patience and compassion for the people in your community and she was so respectful and tried to follow all of his orders as best she could, EVERYONE makes mistakes and if he treats someone like her who’s showing him the upmost respect then he’s too burnt out to continue this job and needs to find a new line of work I can’t imagine how he treats people who are more difficult to handle, people who have serious mental illnesses or people who just have serious problems in general.
Wow respect and courteous from both sides. Very refreshing to see.
Ah the hunt and peck method of typing lol. My husband does the same thing when he’s on the computer and he did hundreds and possibly thousands police reports like that lol.

I would hate to have this officer give me instructions if I was sober none the less drunk. He talks really fast and has slurred speech that would make it hard to understand with fully intact faculties. I can only imagine what it sounded like to her lmao.
Lmfao that truck is not totaled gtfo

Love how he writes down the license plate, even though its already so memorable… I mean someone watching this has probably seen datbeach driving around..
I thought the point of the body cam is to have video of the encounter and to have video of the tests performed. He didn't have his camera on her the whole time during the walk & turn test. I always see the officers back up so their body cams will be able to catch the entirety of every test & have the proof they need to show how many signs of impairment they show during the tests, especially if the officers are tall. I don't understand why he didn't do that. Many lawyers will try to use that as an advantage for their clients. It was clear as day she was intoxicated.
Impressive, I'm sure taxpayers will be stuck with the bill too. She should have her wages garnished until it pays for repairs or replacement.
Damn the cop sounds drunk too
Polite young lady who made a huge mistake. Hope she learns from this. It could have been so much worse.
Minor accident is not going to "total" a big fire truck.
License plate checks out.
Take a shot every time the girl says, "I'm sorry."
She pretty
Am I the only one that thinks the cop is a mush mouth? He slurs every word that comes out of his mouth.
It's refreshing to see someone being respectful and accepting responsibility. She's also clearly remorseful and appears as though she's definitely learned a valuable lesson from it, unlike most DUI videos we see. She wasn't hammered, but underage is 0.0 or 0.02 depending where it is, and it was still enough to contribute to the accident. Thankfully she didn't hurt anyone.
The cop can't talk keep slering his words
Cop fucked up by starting FSTs before asking her, hope it doesn't bite this case in the ass..
Insurance company: "You hit a WHAT???"
