feel better with a female that's fine um
um if we back you up just a couple feet
and then I might back up a little
further I would have room to do Fields
between your car and hers and then if I
back up a little further I'd feel safer
with people slowing down well here's
what I'm going to say because of the
roadway I don't want to do Fields here
we're going to put her in danger okay I
have probable cause right now we can do
Fields after we hook her um because odor
blood watery eyes um two people called
her in
second was incredibly dangerous so um I
say let's just hook her up um we can
offer to do fields in the Sheriff's
Office where it's nice and go from there
she has you want try to PT her right now
yeah we can I I like that idea there's
three dogs oh yeah I like
that do you want to go do that real
quick and I'll run
hey how's it going hey how are you good
where are we coming from today just so
you know I am recording okay that's
totally okay okay okay so I am um
driving I have been on the road for uh
what 6 hours oh boy 5 hours okay sorry

Gregor nice to meet you Greg he's very
he's very friendly yes I can see that so
like my partner said we have some
concerns about you're driving today okay
well I apologize okay we're how much
have you had to drink zero zero what
about in your in your cup there what's
in that I mean you can this is water
what about your other Cup this is coffee
okay you can look at what do we add to
those uh you can look it's it's it's um
this is from 5 hours ago literally I
probably ought to be drinking more water
this is water that's coffee you taken
any medication or anything okay have you
ever had to take medication no okay um
would you so like I said concerns on
both of our parts about your driving
would you be willing to do a voluntary
field sobriety test today it's totally
um it's not L an evidentiary test um um
yes I mean I totally could it's kind of
embarrassing okay
um you tell me what I have to do and
I'll do it well so everything is
voluntary all of my tests are voluntary
the only test I want to do right now
just because of the roadway and we're
not in the safest area is just this
spread test okay uh can I also say that
I have a Vision issue okay um and so
tell me about that um so I have what's
called liers
disorder and I might not not be the best
at that okay so what does that do to
your eyes uh it means that my per
peripheral is better but my central is
not so good okay gotcha does that cause
you
to have any like is it just a peripheral
and Center issue like no nagas or
anything I think a stagis I uh I know
what you're going out and um I do think
that affects it that you have a
stigmatism honestly I don't know okay
all right well would you would you be
willing to I appreciate that I love
honesty honesty goes a long ways for
me
um okay would you be willing to submit a
breath test for for me all it does is
read that your alcohol content which if
you hadn't had any today then it should
show
zeros um what I would like to do is how

like yeah okay I have read defin the
under 18 yeah you're good perfect I have
read or had read to me the above
explanation of my constitutional rights
and I understand these
rights correct okay I'm going to put
what you said down and note that you're
cuffed don't take my dogs to the pound
okay I understand my constitutional
rights I have decided not to exercise
these rights at this time any statements
made by me are made freely voluntarily
and without threats or Promises of any
kind I think there have been threats but
sure okay what kind of threats have been
made um every all three like all four of
you all uh threatened me the whole time
that's fine okay I'm sorry that you felt
that way can you tell me what I did so I
can fix that for you
okay so um I'll tell you specifically um
sure you did not allow the proper
test uh you judged prior to it and it is
what it is I mean okay you've already
you've already determined what you think
it is and there's nothing I can
do so I'm in trouble so whatever it's
fine okay I'm going to check your mouth
okay do you have any anything in your
mouth food gum
tobacco no no okay can you kind of move
your lips for
me what do you mean like stick your lips
out like duck lips my head my uh
sunglasses coming down but how about I
fix those for you thank you yeah okay
nothing in your mouth of course not
okay so so there's basically there's
nothing I can say so I don't think I
have any rights like that I think you've
already determined
it and it is what it
is and you just destroyed my holiday
um uh I'll tell you I am
100% okay cogn and I need I you know I
get lost going to
between Beaverton to
Pullman um maybe I go over the line
whatever but I am 100% okay to drive and
uh if you give me a a realistic test I
can pass it that's what we're going to
do this is the this is the real test so
that's why we decided to st% I can I can
do it and I would 100% pass any test you
give me okay um so this is the breath
test that counts so this is the breath
test I want you to do and then you can
prove me wrong okay does that sound fair
can can you take these off so CU I would
can I explain to you something real
quick so what I just did when I checked
your mouth so for this test we got to
have a 15minute waiting period where I
check your mouth you don't eat or drink
anything why I have people staying cuffs
is because you can't touch your mouth
well that 15 I I checked them they're
super loose um I'm kind of concerned you
could slip them at this point so why I'm
keeping in C could if I wanted to right
but you're being super cooperative and I
appreciate that um but so we're going to
wait those 15 minutes and then we're
going to do this breath test the
official one um and during that
15-minute time you can't touch your face
and as soon as I tell people don't touch
your face that's the first thing they do
so that's why that's cuz it's just like
don't think about tomatoes you probably
just thought about tomatoes right so
that's why I always keep people in cuffs
so that way we don't have to start those
15 minutes over again okay and I got a
bunch of stuff to read to you makes the
15 minutes fly by okay so this is
terrible and then in 15 minutes you can
you can prove me wrong and then we
can yeah
can I ask why why did you pull me over
yeah so we had a couple different
reports of you driving um over the
center line um driving in both lanes
driving on the shoulder then when people
called in two different people called in
and then when my sergeant got behind you
you almost went head on in the opposite
lane with another vehicle so that's why
he stopped you where he stopped you cuz
he wanted it's not go any further down
the roadway so I'm going to read you
some more stuff okay so I need you to
listen real careful okay can you do that
for
me yes thank you so I'm going to read
you your implied consent warnings for
breath warning you under arrest for can
can I ask about my doc first um can you
wait to put them in
jail you know what I mean puppy jail mhm
yep just wait so they're going to a
little holding spot right now and then
we could talk about it after the breath
test if you'd like how about
that yeah can can I ask are you waiting
to do that I can text my and tell him to
wait how about that yeah cuz there's no
reason to do that okay I will text him
wait and keep how about they stay with
the car until we're done here correct
okay let me I got to put his number in
first whoops wrong
[Music]
one yeah
I my gosh I've had a terrible day
[Music]
so I am a teacher I worked like crazy I
had 20 parent te Tri conferences
yesterday holy smokes that's a lot and I
had to just sit and relax um uh I
literally have been driving for 7 hours
from Oregon you said say again you said
from Oregon right from Oregon yeah
that's a long way it is um
and it it's a little bit frustrating to
be sitting here in handcuffs when I try
to do my best for all of our kids sure I
mean I'm truly I truly try to be the
best person I can and I am not a good
person and I should not be sitting and
hand you got three dogs I can tell you
bad people bad people don't have three
dogs do they two kids
okay so let me read this and then I want
to hear more about your kiddos okay so
again implied consent warning for breath
you are warning your under arrest for du
for RCW 4661 502 or RCW 46 6154 driving
or being in actual physical control of a
motor vehicle while under the influence
of an intoxicating liquor and or drugs
further you are now being asked to
submit to a test of your breath which
consists of two separate samples of your
breath taken independently to terine
alcohol
concentration um will you now submit to
a breath test sure why not okay so we've
got a few more minutes I've got to punch
in it's still warming up so again um it
nice if you could take the Cuffs off if
possible we are almost there let's see I
took your checked your mouth the 1720 so
we've got about four more minutes until
we're ready to do the test the test
takes about 5 minutes and then we'll get
those cuffs right off okay
um what did you measure in the field I
was a 0 22 seriously 022 yes oops and I
put that in the wrong
box did you have to teach today
no they you guys have a short week for
Thanksgiving I did 20 par and teacher
conferences yesterday and then I waited
and then I had to drive out today so
literally I drove like 8 hours so 22
makes no sense to me
okay is there any way for you to just
clear this and not make it an issue only
you can do
that and the test will show those
results
man it's funny how your nose is just in
these
situations I'm serious like my nose is
like
crazy I believe
you did you really take my puppies to
the pound yes ma'am oh God just the cfax
pound they didn't go to the big scary
pound yeah that's like a serious pound I
should have just stayed
Co facts is
um
challenging that's what I'd
say did you grow up in Pullman nope I
grew up in Utah
oh how did your parents get up here oh
my my father's a physician he uh
practices in pulman and in spok can I'm
a teacher I'm a doctor of biological
engineering I have uh practiced all over
the place my sister is in Colorado we
all come back together at this time of
year like uh
frankly it's
uh a little bit
challenging there's no way
um yeah I don't even care I just want to
go
home you already
predetermined so I think there's almost
no point in doing what you're doing cuz
I think you won't even care I will care
I don't think you do care honestly
there's organ
you've already gone beyond your time
frame
so what time frame is that oh you had
your time
frame
uh could you could you undo that let me
check is that possible no ma'am I told
you not until after we get done with the
test if you roll your wrists like that
it'll be a little more comfortable there
you
go no that doesn't work is there any any
way you can undo that cuz no now don't
like it okay well I hear you and I will
get them off just as soon as I can we
are just about ready to do the test it's
going to make a bunch of
noise and then you not that you're
outside your time frame is a minimum of
15 minutes it's not a maximum of 15
minutes well uh
nice and
[Music]
warm I'm even trying to think of what I
even did
there's no way I'm going to TU okay so
I'm going you take a big breath in and
then blow into the tube and we got to
blow for quite some time so big breath
in and
blow there's a blow meter on it you're
not blowing there you go there you go
keep going keep going keep going keep
going keep going you're halfway keep
going keep going you're almost there
keep going keep going keep
going perfect you can stop perfect
that was great so now it's going to make
a whole bunch more noise all it does is
show you how much you're blowing
air so have a seat it's going to make
some noise and do its thing and then
we'll do a second test just like the
first one and then uh it'll print us out
the
results I think this is
unnecessary
okay her Jean yep go ahead and have a a
seat for
me have a seat sorry I'd like to see
numbers it doesn't show us any numbers
unfortunately all it shows is it doesn't
show Numbers well so it does all its
calibration and then it'll print them
out which I should move my hat so it
doesn't get in the
way I have a seat sorry
[Music]
I probably should have had the parents
pick up the dogs well you can change
your mind at any point on that one they
can come get them you just give us the
word and the phone number or let's give
it an hour and we'll like figure out
what's going on and then and then decide
sounds like a great great plan like one
by one love
it me have a seat sorry I should be
allowed to see what's going on okay why
don't you swing your chair around over
here I just don't want you breathing on
my
machine know that that's the point of
the machine isn't
it at the right time have a seat sorry
we're good thank you sir thank you ma'am
have a seat see he's going to do his dry
gas check and that's when I don't want
you breathing on it so have a seat cuz
it needs to breathe its own there yeah
it is what it is MHM
this
is tick tock tick to yeah it takes its
sweet time have a seat
sorry sorry I like science what subject
do you teach at school uh well I teach a
lot of subjects I teach uh English and
um math okay um I'm a biomedical
engineer so I I know a bit of everything
okay kind of an expert you know you know
a lot about everything
but what grades do you teach then right
now fifth grade that's a good
age they're a lot of fun at that age
sorry my my watch is going crazy so I
think they're all calling
me have a seat what does that say
purging so it's preparing itself for the
next
test what did it say on the first one
all it shows me is that you blew Air at
a certain level but I'm not I'm not a
Drager expert so those numbers don't
necessarily mean what Drager mean this
is what the instrument is called it's
called a dragger oh gotcha
um is there any we can undo these so I
can like be a normal person in just a
couple minutes we got one more breath
sample to do have a seat and we're going
to do it right now have a seat and just
like the first one big breath in hold on
my nose is super
itchy okay big big breath in and my hair
is in my mouth let me fix that for you I
can do that part there we go okay we got
to breathe while it's telling us
to and
blow there you go keep going keep going
keep going harder harder harder harder
there you go keep going keep going
you're almost there keep going keep
going keep going keep going oh so close
okay perfect
all right have a seat have a seat for
me
sorry and as soon as it tells me that
that sample is good you're a fifth grade
teacher how do you get your kids to
follow
instructions isn't that important in
your classroom of course
yeah I like it when you follow
my yes it's because we we work together
and we trust each each
other and uh we have fun and you know
like because we think life is good um we
don't do accusatory things like this um
I don't obviously uh instantly accuse
them uh and threaten them and um I I'll
tell you they're inherently good people
because I think you're a good person
um well well we see okay yeah I I I
think that I'm obviously accused and
it's fine
whatever you know you you already told
me my puppies are in jail that's you
know said I'm I'm sending your puppies
to jail it's like that well we would
love to call Mom and Dad to come get
them or other we'll send we'll send your
puppies to jail is what you said it's
like okay
whatever um uh I probably would want to
do that
okay we're waiting it's thinking I know
it takes a long time machine then oh
it's very th it's not a machine it's an
instrument no it is a machine no it it
it yeah machines are something that do
something instruments are something that
measures something you would know that
is it
a scientist or whatever you are I'm a
biological engineer that is an
instrument and a machine and it measures
a certain you know can't be both
okay are you ready for your results
they're
printing I don't like that it waits that
long well it's not instant okay so
here's what we got going on so like you
said earlier the legal limits a
08 so what we started here is the blank
test where it checks itself and makes
sure that it's reading properly which it
did and it verified then we have the
first sample which it reads in two
different ways
glasses do you your sunglasses not
sunglasses like my reading just read it
to me please okay so first sample two
different ways that it reads results the
first one being a 227 and a
22927 and then for our second test down
here so again it does all it blank test
and all of its other Jazz then we did
sample two and again um it has two ways
that it reads it and you were a 227 and
a 228 that's really really high and I've
been driving for like 7 hours like that
makes no sense to me how much did you
drink last night I mean I drank last
night but I've been like I've been fine
all day do you want to stand up sure I'm
going to take your handcuff you going to
be cool with me of course okay yeah yeah
no
worries I'm going to have you step step
around the corner there we go that way
I'm not standing over a chair okay so
you are underr for DUI okay
you're almost
yep one of those is going to go with you
and one of them is going to go with me
and so you're almost triple you're
almost triped the legal limit like I
don't even believe that because like
that makes no sense to me okay well
perhaps perhaps you live your life at a
three yes exactly live my life at a
three or
five five I mean you be dead at five
I've met people
it's not few and far
between few and far between but you
think the highest I've seen is a four or
something seriously at a four mhm but
you're not there no I mean I literally
I've been driving for like seven hours
that's crazy
started you do you have a little extra
for the
road in your
coffee not in my coffee all right
something El on my
water right this nice young man is going
to take care of you okay so he's do
everything he tells yeah um can can you
can you tell me what's going to happen
yes can you tell me yes I don't want to
talk sure thing I'm going to hang out
while he does his thing too but so what
what's going to happen next is you've
been arrested for DUI um he is going to
give you some clothes to change in
private in this room and then we're
going to have you go through a body
scanner just to make sure nothing's
inside you he's got to read you some
stuff too um about bringing stuff into
jail then we're going to put you when
can I leave then let me explain the
whole process then we're going to put
you in a holding cell I'm going to go do
some paperwork when I give the jail that
paperwork then they will book you into
jail at that time you can use the phone
to call whoever you need to um and then
after they book you into jail pending
the rest of my investigation you might
be able to bail out at that time tonight
okay maybe okay it depends have you ever
gotten a DUI before I have this is
number three okay so you will not have
bail until you see the judge which will
be on Monday not in Washington but
correct it'll be in Washington on Monday
because it's a holiday tomorrow and
Friday do we have court Friday there
it's the indigenous day now okay so yep
we have holiday tomorrow and Friday so
you will be in jail till Monday when you
can see a judge okay so again this nice
young man's got some paperwork to read
you
so I have to teach on
Monday okay probably going to take a
sick day
yes
um can I call your parents to come get
your dogs I don't want to have to take
them to the pound cuz after 3 days well
actually I guess six days we got six
days for them to be at the pound uh C
can can I know can I bail out tonight no
ma'am there's no way no no
way we've done this too many times if
you're arrested for DUI uh you have a
prior DUI within 10 years there's no
bail until you see like seven years ago
so can I is there any way I can bail out
tonight there's no amount of money it's
not about money it's about convenience
yeah no I get
it but this is the rule our legislators
have decided to carry so that's just the
way it is I did park your car at that
parking lot and locked it up
if you don't are the dogs still in there
no they're at the pound already at the
pound um which is fine we can break them
out at the pound if your parents want to
come ask sorry
yes but till Monday um we feed them and
stuff yeah of course I have to pay for
that
um uh is there any way for me to process
out like right away and of course I will
deal with it yeah there's no there isn't
no
way it's just the way the laws are
created in
Washington because it's a holiday week
it's like four
days unfortunately I I need
to yeah cuz Court's closed today it's
already 6 o' I think it would be
important to all your family five five
days um do you have my phone I did grab
your phone but you can't use
it can I text them no ma'am no you'll
have to make a call from the booking
phone right Cather so I got to read you
something real quick that's fine um I'm
not allowed to text them and be like hey
not coming you
call but four days there St there's
nothing we can do about it you're stuck
that's the loss we four days yeah we
didn't make the
loss Catherine what's that you
uary 8 uh 9 do you want Mar for 4
days seriously 4 days that's help me can
you help me I would love to help you but
that's the UN the unfortunate reality of
having prior to days and it being a
holiday weekend but hey we've saved
everyone now no one's going to get hurt
on Thanksgiving so uh four days really
it'll be five actually five days yes
ma'am
all right Catherine your phone off
listen to him for me okay we're done
arguing there's nothing we can do about
it I'm not arguing okay I'm I'm asking
for help so now I'm going to give you
dire it should be one day listen to him
cther I'm going to give you directions
what's your Officer Bandy okay so
sunglasses

this we're done talking about it we're
just going to get you
check uh I need to communicate with my
family okay yeah you'll be able we're
going to give you that opportunity once
the booking process is
complete those these are reasons why we
thought it would be a good idea to have
your family get your dogs and things
like that you're
right I should have probably said yes I
we can still do it you just have to let
us know have you already taken them P
yeah but I can get them
out we take our shoes

happen next do you guys seal these no

shoes on those aren't my shoes they're
your shoes okay they're the same they

both for
large yeah oh I never thought of that
they're pretty
bad right this way we're going to have
you go in this room
okay I will talk to you about it after
we change okay make sure you take off
your bra and your underwear okay bra
underwear seriously
yep
jum oh my goodness yep seriously yes
ma'am to
goodness so is this number four or is
this number three number three can I
slide yeah absolutely the first one um
is kind of conf it was in I don't know
if
it's 18 I think
18 so you're
definitely never thought about that what
it's Wednesday night well they'll have a
telephonic on cuz they have to within 72
hours so on Saturday that probably won't
no way he lets her out if you put that
CH has two prior arrest for DUI we'll
look at that one we we'll do some
verification I mean and she it was bad
like the witness followed she followed
the witness for an hour and as a witness
we try to slow down did anyone ever talk
to the witness cuz I remember they going
statement I'll put it in your
report initial and then I'll call the
other one cuz there was supposedly two
yeah but the witness is like I tried to
slow down and get off the road and she'
just be right on my ass and flashing me
and tuning her signal G and um so then
i' pull away and she'd get back like a
quarter mile and then just speed up and
I she into oncoming traffic for an hour
she followed her from
395 or she that's where she followed her
from
395 and she was stuck because she was
behind a car doing exactly the speed
limit so she couldn't go fast couldn't
go slowly she was still shaking after
well hey I hope you told her she did the
right thing oh cuz I feel like I feel
like sometimes people are like well I
don't know if I should call and it's
like no no I was like you save some
livesight so good yeah good cuz I think
I can't believe she didn't hit that one
car I was like [ __ ] I'm going to watch
her do this yeah I know when I saw your
lights I was like no no no yeah I was I
in my head was jti where you get around
the corner to stop a jti be perfect but
I'm like and then I turn my lights on
and she wouldn't pull over and turn my
siren on well I heard your siren and
that's when I was like all right I'm
going to go catch up to him cuz I don't
know what's happening now oh it was so
crazy because she as I came when I was
on kfax Airport Road I think is when she
was going by so then I had to get by all
those cars to get back on 26 to then
catch up to her yeah so she mes probably
3/4 of her car over the fog line there's
a car coming to H on they go or over the
center line the car was over the fog
line and she swis back just at the right
time to get back in her Lane but the
other also s off the road almost gets
the
guard I was like got to he go something
but she didn't even pay attention to mys
at all I turn my siren and then short
very shortly after my siren she started
to slow down but then she just kind of
was like
go how we doing in there Catherine oh
good I'm trying to figure out okay
seriously no BR or underwear they'll
give you your stuff back after we go
through the body H after the body
scanner we'll get you back some
undergarments okay but for the body
scanner we need
everything birthday suit under the
jumpsuit okay I had an issue with not
having underlow I agree we just got to
get it off long enough to do the body
scanner oh this is really ridiculous I
have to
say and you want to grab all your
clothes and you can put them in the
bin there we
go holding me for 4 days would be we're
would be absolutely ridiculous sounds
like you might have a telephonic
hearing uh within 72 hours so don't know
when that would be there no I mean 72
that's still three days no I need like
right now we only have to provide it
within 72 hours so we're going to follow
Mr band's
instructions can I can I do that your
property come on over walk that way
please you know I'm not trying that hard
I know you're just a little
intoxicated honestly not a little a lot
okay giving you the benefit of the doubt
to on
she canot just like in fifth
grade she hasn't follow a single
instruction I I cannot believe you got a
breath test I cannot believe she a great
breath well we had a conversation about
following
Direction I don't know if you heard that
right before we took the breath test
about well your students and then I
think she realized oh crap I'm not
following directions
[Music]
got anything in your pocket I mean it's
your pocket no we
we true now it's my pocket talking uh no
I'm like I'm naked underneath whatever
you gave me that's all I got stay over
there stay over
there which side of her body is that do
you have a piercing or anything I have
uh just my ears on your breasts or
anything no
no what do you
see you ever had surgery or
anything my foot has had some metal
implants but um there should be nothing
on the breast or oh I oh oh no I have a
my
uh uh I had a uh what do you call it
almost like a stent in
a I forget where they put it not the
pancreas but uh the spleen I had a
little St in of spleen okay but that
would be like down here
it's about the right
spot yeah just stops from bleeding so
like maybe here okay head out follow him
please you're going be hanging out here
until the deputies finish writing your
report and we'll get you booked in Kev
just have a seat there's pillows and or
not pillows there's blankets I'll be as
quick as I can yeah hey can can would
you please let me make a quick call and
just say I'm not coming to Thanksgiving
so you'll be able to use the jail phone
here in a little bit okay Jail phone
doesn't help me because I don't know the
numbers I we can get numbers off you're
goingon to have a chance to get numbers
from your
phone than you do you want me to let the
judge know do you need any help with
your drinking what do you mean do you
need like some help to stop drinking or
do you have a drinking problem well
everybody does I would say um right now
sure what I need help with is to uh like
efficiency 100% yes um I'm yeah it's
like I really don't believe those
numbers it's kind of wild to me that
they're that high I'll tell you
Katherine I've been doing this job for a
long time and um I used to teach dii
investigations and stuff like that those
numbers match exactly what I'm seeing in
your movements and um your ability to
follow instructions and ability your
coordination as as well as your physical
appearance so I think they're they're
right on um
interesting so my guess is you become of
22 oh yeah oh yeah yeah
yes really I really do huh so what what
I would hope is instead of focusing I
really don't believe that I I mean I I
ask
for I what I would really like is you to
not not log a duii for me for this one
I'm sure you we're going to um because
that's going to destroy my
life it really will um so what I would
like is for uh I think
functionally I'm I'm I'm in pretty good
standing do you think normal people when
they drive they drive on the wrong side
of the road oh of course not okay um do
you think they drive on the shoulder and
like off uh but only when you're yeah
but no do you think people people almost
hit guard rails when they're driving um
you're asking leading questions of
course not of course not of course not
of course not sure
um what I'd say is uh if there's any
way
to I don't know mediate or truncate this
process
this what what I would ask is rather
than you focus on how we do our job and
the mistakes that you think we're making
I'm not saying you made mistake you did
you said it several times but just focus
on the big mistake that you made today
and work towards you've done that a
couple times though work towards not
doing that anymore because of course I
don't want you to get hurt I don't want
your doggies to get hurt course no I I
understand I understand
um but like four days like ah well the
first first thing is is there
any you do how is that even possible is
what I first say I mean I believe it but
I don't believe it
cuz anyway well I don't believe whatever
it is is fine I don't believe you
purposely drove at a0 22 but you did
Drive
intoxicated so um
but we we're going to get started on the
paperwork so that way you'll be able to
call your parents okay and then can I
[Music]
um and then think about your dogs too
what you want done with those well can I
get out uh I mean 4 days is ridiculous
you're going to be here that's that's
fact a fact you you'll have a telephone
hearing within 72
hours so I guess in theory they could
let you out maybe maybe I doubt after
the
probably nothing okay there's nothing
you can do right now it's up to the
judge at some point but can can you
knowing what like like straight up hey
uh clear a a number and then I go I will
I will tell them straight up how very
intoxicated you were and how very much
of a danger you were to society today so
you really know two people called you in
one girl you followed her from Highway
39 for about an hour you drive right up
on her you back off you flash your
lights at her you flash your turn
signals she's scared even 15 minutes
later she was still shaking when I
talked to her oh I don't believe that
it's all on here you'll be able to watch
it in court so I'm going to have you
have a seat so I can go do my paperwork
okay okay thank you um you'll be we got
to work on that 395 no seriously from
395 all the way on 26 yeah I didn't
flash any body oh
well I'm I don't think she the only time
I flashed somebody is when I saw
somebody that didn't have their
headlights on and I flashed somebody for
that oh you're not supposed to do that
how do you tell them they don't have
their headlights on that's how you're
supposed to do it no it's it's actually
so then when they don't have their
lights on and can't see and then you
flash your brights at them that makes it
even more no I turn my light off and on
I don't flash them two cars done with
lights off for a second that's dangerous
too what what are you supposed to do
just keep going you don't tell them
NOP Pap work all right thank you I need
need
