This was based on her observations from when she had conducted an unrelated traffic stop nearby around 11:53 p.m. on June 12th. She went closer towards the vehicle and noticed that a red 2024 Mazda CX5 was parked perpendicular to a stop sign on Old Dutch Road West. >> I promise that was one of two gold cards I can represent. I appreciate all the work that you do, >> ma'am. A gold card cannot get you out of >> That's not what I'm saying. I'm saying >> I mean a DUI. >> County copyright. Let me get a B for you. >> Ma'am. >> Ma'am. Driver is unresponsive. Unknown of breathing. >> Ma'am. While the vehicle initially seemed unoccupied, a closer inspection revealed that the driver was unconscious. She immediately notified dispatch and asked them to notify the Bedminster Township Police Department since this was within their boundaries. After repeatedly banging the on the window, the driver was eventually awakened and proceeded to roll down her window. Officer Canes immediately detected the odor of alcohol and observed multiple open containers inside the vehicle. The driver was later identified as 23-year-old Celia Perryi and she told the officer that she was coming from a work event in Jersey City. However, she denied consuming any alcohol earlier that evening. Ma'am >> 206 old Dutch sounding vehicle also locked. Ma'am Ma'am. >> Ma'am. Ma'am, open the door. Open the door. All right. Driver's conscious. Alert. How you doing? You okay? All right. You were just sweeping. My name is Officer Koshigi. My body camera is activated recording. You okay? >> Yes, I'm fine.

So, I'm smelling alcohol coming off of you. Did you have anything to drink tonight? No, I didn't. I came back from an event from my co-workers. Where was 8N? It was interesting. Okay, we're back. Trust me, I I don't really trust your story right now cuz I smell alcohol coming off of you. I'm working to flavor company. Okay. So, what? Tell me why you were just sleeping right here. I was banging on the window and I couldn't get you to wake up. [Music] And I I see open alcohol containers right next to you. >> That was my coworker. They're not open. >> But I I smell alcohol. >> I know it is open. I smell it coming off you. >> You smell it coming off of me? >> Yes, I do. And there's an open container right in the car. >> Yes. And that was my coworker that I drove home this morning. >> Okay. And you can't tell me why you're parked in the middle of the road sleeping. I was just on a motor vehicle stop. >> I drove her by. We had an event earlier this afternoon. >> Okay. Where was the event? You said >> it was in Jersey City. >> Okay. Where'd you drop her off at? >> Jersey City. >> Okay. Let me see your driver's license registration. When I came obviously I was on my side over here. She I noticed my hands here when I came out. She was just passed out of the wheel. Um and then she >> I thought it was like a medical emergency. I like >> I thought so too. But then when I saw the alcohol pass >> I didn't know.

So, I come up here and I notic you there is two opens of pine on passenger side. She said there's um private customer. I have to take this back because I bought this car a week ago. >> My own money. >> Yeah. Beautiful. >> Yeah. >> She's got uh some open containers. >> Yeah. Strong motor. >> Do you want us to take it or do you want to take it for you? Make sure you sign the complaints when you're on >> Yeah, you were summoned. >> You got anything? >> Yeah. No, I don't know if uh just checking with you at your town. >> Don't know. All right. >> I don't I know I have insurance. >> I know. I was ask I bought this car a week ago. Sergeant Jeffrey Veltry and Officer Liam McCann with the Bedminster Township Police Department arrived on scene shortly afterwards. Once they were on scene, they realized that it was not an emergency and the ambulance was cancelled. Celia provided the officer with her PBA gold card which indicated that she had a relative in law enforcement. Officer Canich told Celia that she did not need that card. Detective Adam Caruso also arrived on scene and officer Kenise returned to her patrol car to ruin Celia's information. Since she was displaying signs of impairment, Celia was asked to exit the vehicle and perform field sobriety exercises all the papers. Well, take your time. I'm here all night, don't they? Don't worry about it. >> Maybe they emailed you. >> They did, too. But I want to make sure I I don't want to give you a hard time having to stay on. This is your premium. They didn't uh email you a temporary copy. DC. Okay. All right. Let me just run your license. Okay. How old is she? >> Um, what do you want to do? You want to test her? >> Yeah. We just have to do the uh the summons will have to be written on the bed minister's ticket. So, we'll have to probably handw write it cuz I don't think we'll be able to log into the retig like if if she if she's if she's determined to be under the influence and we arrest her, we'd have to do cuz you're in Bener, we have to write the ticket on a Bener summon, but it would still be you writing the ticket. >> Don't worry about that. We'll figure that out at the time comes. So you pulled up and saw her just like this. >> Yeah. So I was like because I was on the side and I noticed like two lights and I thought maybe it was a bed sitting there just making sure >> and then I didn't like what I turn and I'm like and I get out and I thought there was somebody there but she was in class took off and I realized >> Jeez. Yeah. I wouldn't I would just come down and see if she got anything. But if you want to test her, we'll test her. >> Yeah, I'll grab it for you. All right, ma'am. So, here's the deal. Because there's open containers of alcohol in the car because I smell it coming off of you, I'm going to have to do a standard field sorbet test. Okay. >> Okay. On you.

During the HGN test, officer can observed the lack of smooth pursuit, distinct and sustained nestagmas at maximum deviation, and the onset of nestagmas prior to 45°. The second exercise was the walk and turn test. During the walk and turn test, Celia failed to touch heel to toe on each step, turned improperly, and took an incorrect number of steps in each direction. The final exercise was the one leg stand test. During the one leg stand test, Celia failed to raise her foot in the proper fashion and put her foot down before the test was complete. >> All right.
