Notice the officer's muted tactical huddle. They aren't buying her just distracted story. Now it's time for the field sobriety tests starting with the horizontal gaze nestagmas. Watch her balance and focus closely. Would you arrest her here? Let me know below. >> All right. So then just uh just based on the accident like that you said you had the one drink.

Do you wear glasses or contacts? >> No. Well, I got LASIC like a year ago, so I have some like light sensitivity. >> Okay. Yeah, that shouldn't that shouldn't affect it. Um, so what this test is, you're just going to Can you see the tip of the pen? All right. So, you're just going to watch the tip of the pen with your eyes and your eyes only, right? Just keep your head still and just follow with your eyes. Understand? >> Yeah. >> Okay. I'm just going to move it back and forth. >> Okay. Heat Almost done. All right. Now, just follow straight up.

Once you get to the ninth step, you're going to do a series of small steps and then do nine steps back. I'm going to show you how to do it, but that's the uh the gist of it. All right, so it's going to look like this. So, all right, just like this. You're going to do one, two, three. When you get to the I'm only going to do three to demonstrate it, but you have to do nine. When you get to the ninth step, you're going to leave whatever foot is in the front there.
