Today's video is a traffic stop that goes sideways fast when a mom says she's rushing to pick up her son, but the officer says she just drove the wrong way and nearly clipped his cruiser. Stick around because this one ends in cuffs. >> Hello. >> Hi. How are you? >> I'm good. How are you? >> Good, thank you. >> I'm Officer Gilmore, for police. How you doing tonight? >> Good, thanks. >> All right. Do you know why I stopped you? >> No. >> You have no idea? >> No. >> No. Where are you coming from tonight? >> I'm coming I'm going to pick up my son. >> Okay. Where are you going to? >> Um Park Avenue. >> Park Avenue. >> Tenton Falls. >> Tent Falls. Okay. Where are you coming from right now? >> I'm coming from Local. >> You're coming from Local? >> Yeah. >> Okay. That's where you were just at right now? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Why you coming from Red Bank then? >> I wasn't coming from Red Bank. >> Yeah, that was Red Bank back there. >> Honestly, I don't know my RAM in navigation. >> Okay.

Drink any alcohol? >> Um, one drink. >> What kind of drink? >> Um, a martini. >> A martini. >> Yeah. >> Okay. All right. So, you know your alphabet? >> Yes. >> All right. Can you say your alphabet from A to Z? Don't sing it though. >> A B E F G H I J K L M O P Q R M T W X Y Z >> Okay, are you good with numbers? >> Okay, that's asking a little much. >> You could take a few seconds if you if you need to in between numbers. 80 82 to 69. Just count backwards. >> 821 80. >> Are you serious with that? I'm simple. No, you don't want to complete the test. >> No, I'm not saying that. I'm just saying I don't understand why you're >> Okay. So, there's two reasons why I'm put why I'm stopping you right now. Okay. All right. First off, did you see me parked on the side of the road over there? Okay. You came probably within 2 in of my door. All right. There was no cars coming the other way. You easily could have moved over. Okay. Luckily, you didn't hit me or my mirror, which was good. All right. But the main reason that I'm stopping you, all right, is right over there after you pass me, you went down the wrong way. There's two signs on opposite sides of the road and said do not enter >> around here on a street. So >> you flew right through it. You didn't even slow down. All right. And then you came up where there should have been a stop sign, but there isn't cuz you were going the wrong way. And you blew right through that, too. Okay. You didn't even stop and look at traffic. Okay. >> Any explanation? >> Honestly, I don't know my way around here. >> I understand if you don't know directions, but you know what a do not enter sign looks like, right? There's two of them, one on each side of the road. You didn't see either one. >> Okay. >> No, I'm asking you. You didn't see either one? Hey, Danielle. Is your car in park? I see your foot still on the brake. >> Yeah. >> Okay. You want to turn it off for me? I'm just going to have you step outside here and talk to me out here. It's a little bit safer. Okay. >> Just right behind your car in the sidewalk. Okay. >> All right. So, here's the thing. Okay. I'm a little concerned because of the way that you were driving. >> Yeah. I just don't know my way, honestly. which I'm completely sympathetic to and I can understand that. But when there's two big signs the size of this and they say do not enter, that's a universal sign. You know what? >> Honestly focused on getting my son, that's what I was doing. >> I get that. But you still got to follow the rules of the road, right? Okay. Luckily, a car wasn't coming at you. Okay. But here's the thing. I'm concerned that you might have drank a little too much this evening. Okay. So, I'm I'm going to run you through I'm going to run you through some tests. Okay. Cuz you did admit to drinking tonight. Correct. All right. If it was just one drink, you shouldn't have any issues. Okay. Right. >> All right. Just give me one second cuz uh my sergeant here, he's he can do a test for the eyes. Okay. I'm not certified to do that yet. So, I'm just going to have him run you through that real quick. Is that okay? Yes. >> Okay. All right. Give me one second. All right. >> Thank you. >> Once a driver admits to drinking, the officer only needs reasonable suspicion to start field sobriety tests. And the wrongway driving pushes this firmly into DUI territory. >> My name is Sergeant Lawrence with the Little Silver Police Department. Just so be aware, my body cameras on and activated right now. Okay. So, you said you were coming from local? >> Yes. >> Okay. Um, what town do you reside in? >> I live in Homeell. >> You live in Homedale? Are you heading back to Homedale right now? Okay. Um, it's my understanding you consume some alcoholic beverages tonight. >> Had one. >> Okay, not a problem. And you're of age, I'm sure, right? >> Yes. >> Okay. So, with that being said, um, if you don't mind, I'd like to just do a test of your eyes. >> Okay. >> To ensure that you're safe to operate a motor vehicle. And in doing so, if you are, we'll get you on your way and you'll be good to go. Okay. Is that all right? >> All right. Let me uh ask you a few questions though. Okay. Do you have a glass eye on? >> No. >> Okay. Like I said, these are some questions I do have to ask. Okay. >> Um do you have any pre-existing medical conditions that you know head injuries? No. >> No. Okay. All right. Um All right. So, what I'm going to ask you to do is can you put your feet together just like this? Arms down at your side. >> Okay. >> Do you see the tip of my pen? >> Yes. >> Okay. What I want you to do is follow the tip of my pen with your eyes and your eyes only. Okay. We'll hold off for a minute. Let me handle this. >> Okay. Do you see the tip my pen, ma'am? >> Yes. >> Okay. What I'm going to ask you to do is follow the tip of my pen with your eyes and your eyes only. Do not move your head and follow with your eyes and your eyes only. Do you understand? >> Yes. >> Okay. Just follow the tip of my pen with your eyes and your eyes only. Keep your head straight. Okay. Do you understand the instructions? >> Yes. with your eyes and your eyes only. Okay. You keep turning your head. All right. Watch what he's correcting here. Moving your head during the eye test can invalidate it. So, he keeps resetting the instructions to document her compliance or lack of it. >> All right. Keep your chin level. I'm just going to go up. Okay. >> Okay. All right. So, yeah, once again, I want you to resume that starting position. Okay? Left foot on the imaginary line in front of you and your right foot directly in front with your heel toe touching. Nope, don't start yet. I'm going to explain the test and I'll demonstrate it and then I'll ask you to begin. Okay? You're going to take nine heel to toe steps. >> Couple of series of small turns and take nine heel to toe steps backwards. Okay? Nope. Don't begin yet. Don't begin yet. I'm going to show you what it's going to look like. Okay? >> Yes. >> All right. So, with your feet just like this, just like you are right now, keeping your hands down by your side, walk in an imaginary straight line in front of you. Okay? It's going to look like this. One, two, three. Once again, I'm only doing three. You're going to do nine. Okay? Once you get to that ninth step, take a series of small steps and walk nine steps back along that line. One, two, three. Once again, I did three. You're going to do nine. The entire time that you're walking, count your steps out loud. Keep your hands down by your sides. If at any point you lose your balance or step off that imaginary line, just step right back on and continue. Okay. Yeah. >> Do you have any questions for me? Do you understand the test? >> Yeah. >> Okay, you can begin. >> 4 5 6 7 8 9 I'm going to explain the test once again and I'll demonstrate it and then I'll ask you to begin after I do both of those.

Okay, >> that's fine. >> And since you're left-handed, I'll leave that one free. >> It's fine. >> All right. Uh, first thing I'm going to read you is your Miranda warning. Okay. Uh, you have the right to remain silent and refuse to answer any questions. Anything you say may be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to consult with an attorney at any time and have him present before and during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided. If you so desire, a decision to wave these rights is not final and you may withdraw your waiver whenever you wish, either before or during questioning. >> Do you understand? >> Yes. >> Okay. And then having these rights in mind, do you wish to wave and give up these rights and make a knowing and voluntary statement and answer any questions I might have? >> I'll get an attorney. >> Okay. >> So, what do you want me to do? >> Yep.

NJSA 3940-50.2. All right. Number one, you have been arrested for driving while intoxicated. NJSA 394-50. Number two, the law requires you to submit samples of your breath for the purpose of testing to to determine alcohol content. Number nine. I repeat, the law requires you to submit samples of your breath for testing. Will you submit samples of your breath? >> Now I'll get an attorney. >> No. Okay. >> So, your answer is not acceptable. Once again, the law requires that you submit samples of your breath for breath testing. If you do not answer or you answer with anything other than yes, I will charge you with refusal. Now, I'll ask you again. Will you submit the breast testing? By the end of this, she's facing serious DUI consequences, and you can hear it shift from one drink to one and a half as the paperwork starts. On top of that, refusing a breath test can become its own problem, which is why the officer keeps warning her about a refusal charge. The big takeaway, comply with lawful testing, stay calm and fight it later in court if you disagree. Thanks for watching. Drop your thoughts below and subscribe. >> Okay, as I explained, >> what what what is my options? So, what should I do? Well, your your options are either provide breast samples, which we can do over there. All right? Or you refuse to provide breast samples and then I'll finish all the paperwork and we'll get you out of here. It it's totally up to you. >> It's fine. >> Do you want to provide breath samples? >> That's fine. >> Okay. So, I'll I'll ask you one more time. All right. The law requires that you submit samples of your breath for breath testing. If you do not answer or you answer with anything other than yes, I will charge you with refusal. Now, I'll ask you again. Will you submit the breath testing? >> Yeah. >> Yes.
