A patrol car flips the lights. She swears she's fine, old enough to drink. Not a drop tonight. But the officer smells alcohol, spots a nightclub wristband, and runs her license. Nothing comes back from I'm 21 to only 19 years old with a fake ID. Watch every step that turns a routine stop into real consequences. See what the body cam reveals and decide if the charges fit. On September 4th, 2022, at approximately 3:30 a.m. in Boca Raton, Florida, police noticed a blue Hyundai Elantre driving erratically on West Yamato Road just east of I 95, causing the officer to turn around and conduct a traffic stop. The driver, later identified as 19-year-old Seda Coleman. She insists she hasn't been drinking and claims she's 21. The officer smells alcohol, spots a nightclub wristband, and tries to run her Virginia license. Nothing comes back. Now, it's not just a DUI check. It's a lie about age and a fake ID on a traffic stop caught on body cam. Stay with this one. The field tests, hard questions, and the moment everything unravels all play out in real time. >> How's it going? >> Hi, it's good. How are you? The >> reason why I'm pulling you over is when you made that that left turn, you turn into my lane. A+ in your inside lane. >> Oh, you opened up in your lane. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Uh, are you are you paying attention? Cuz you kind of swerved outside in this lane, too, when you turned into here. >> I was paying attention. Yeah. >> Okay. Do you have anything to drink tonight? >> No. >> No. >> No. >> Okay. You got license registration proof for insurance? How old are you? >> I'm 21. >> 21. Yeah. >> Yeah. Sorry. >> You have a current one. >> Is that not current? >> This one's pretty good. >> What's your name? >> Sa Coleman.

Where you at? >> I'm just heading back north up to I'm on Gamato right now. >> Okay. Yeah. >> Be right back. Okay. All right. 43. You can start 94. Good. >> Did you advise that was a Virginia deal? Says no record found >> 10 4. >> She's now busted for handing over a fake driver's license. Not a smart move, but she's young and probably thinks that will work. >> What's your first name? >> Sa. Can you step out of the car for me so I can speak to you? >> Can I turn the car off? It's up to you. You can leave it on or off. >> It's on, but it's in park, so I'll >> speak to you back here. Okay. >> Okay. >> Um, this license is it's not coming back to anything. You have another license? >> No. >> No. Okay. When um you from Virginia? >> Yeah, I'm from V. My license, but yeah, Virginia. >> So, look. >> Yeah. >> I got a little concerns. >> Okay. >> All right. I might believe you're driving under an influence. Okay. >> Okay. So based over here, um I tell she had the front end in the car. She she'll be fine. But um so basically when you when you turn here in the left lane, you're in the inside lane. I was in the outside. All right. >> Okay. >> You have to stay on the inside turn lane. You turn around the outside on the state of my car. >> Okay. >> Right. And then driving here, you're riding this this this solid line over here. >> Gotcha. >> All right. So that's my concern to pull you over. >> Okay. That's fair. >> So my concern is I smell some something on you. I have anything to drink. She told me no. >> Okay. >> Right. Did you have anything to drink tonight? >> No. >> No. Do you take any narcotics tonight? >> No. >> Do you take any medication? >> No, I did not. >> Okay. Do you have any medical conditions I need to know? >> I do not know. >> Given the officer's suspicions and the fake driver's license, Seda is now going to be given a field sobriety test. >> Would you be willing to take take some standard sobriety exercise to my alarm that you have been driving impaired? >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Yeah. What does that mean? >> So, basically, I do a couple exercises on you, make sure you're okay to drive. >> Okay. >> All right. cuz you told me you had nothing to drink. >> Okay. >> But if you did, it's fine. Just let me know cuz I like honesty. >> Okay. >> Did you have anything to drink? A >> little bit, but not that much. >> That's fine. >> Okay. >> Okay. Um, hold this for a second. >> Yeah. I'm trying to find your license. They say they can't find the record, so I don't know what's going on. >> Okay. >> But I'll just double check it. Okay. >> Got you. >> Let me move my car back a little more for a second. >> I like to cooperate. So that's >> I app I appreciate Yeah. Stay stay with Officer Martell for a second. >> Okay. Seda says, "I like to cooperate after starting the encounter with a lie." >> All right. Before I begin, you want to you feel comfortable in your boots? >> Um, yeah.

My stepdad does. >> Yeah, cuz I need the light. >> Now, the field sobriety test begins. Let's see how well she listens to and follows instructions because this is where most impaired people fail. >> You can you can stand right there. It's fine. Okay, >> got you. >> Just face me this way. >> Okay, >> perfect. All right. >> This way. Like straight forward. >> Yeah. All right. What I'm going to need you to do, I need you to stand with your feet together. Keep your arms by your side. Okay. I need you to maintain this position until you do otherwise. Do you understand? >> Yes. >> All right. Um, basically what I'm do, see, you see the tip of my pen? >> Yes. >> All right. With your eyes only. With your eyes only, you're going to follow the tip of my pen. >> All right. Do you have any contacts? >> No. Like in my eyes? >> Yeah. >> No. >> Do you wear glasses? >> No. >> Okay, that's fine. So, I'm going to take your eyes. Make sure everything looks normal for me. Okay. >> Okay. >> Just follow with your eyes. With your eyes only. Don't move your head. Okay. Just like the tip of the pen. >> Yep. >> Okay. Got you. Yeah. >> Remember what I said? Just with your eyes only. Okay. >> Okay. >> And there it is. She turns her whole head already ignoring the very first instruction. >> Watch how they're raising us. Maybe one asking for me. >> She keeps moving her head, not her eyes. Exactly what she was told not to do. Bravo 43 pedal 2. >> Good. >> Same thing. Okay. >> Seda's up for the walk and turn. Watch whether she remembers to count out loud and stay heel to toe. >> All right. Uh, I'm sorry. What's your first name again? >> Seda. >> Seda. Okay. S with an S. >> SA. Okay. Say, >> yeah, that gets confused a lot. >> Okay. Do you see this line? >> Yep. This white line. >> All right. Yeah. We're going to see we're going to use this line for you. Okay. >> Um, do me a favor. We're going to use the line. I need you to place your left foot on the line. Right. Put your right heel against the toe of your left foot. >> Oh, >> right. Now, place your arms by your side and maintain that position until you do otherwise. Do you understand? >> Yes. >> Okay. You have any questions? >> Okay. Do me a favor again. Go put your your your foot your left foot on the line. Put your right heel against the toe of your left foot. >> Right. >> Yes. >> Okay. You understand the instructions? >> Nine steps. >> Okay. Go ahead. And there it is. She doesn't count out loud and she seems to forget she's supposed to turn and take nine heel to toe steps back in the opposite direction. You remember the instructions? >> Nine steps. That was nine steps. >> Okay. Remember when I said instructions to go back down the line? >> Okay. >> Remember that? >> Okay. >> Okay. Go back down. >> Yeah, she definitely didn't remember. Now she's walking backwards. At this point, jail tonight is a near certainty. Okay. >> All right. The next task we're going to do is called a one leg stand. Okay. >> Okay. >> Um, go ahead and just face me again. What you're going to do is I need you going to stand with your feet together. Keep your arms by your side. You're going to maintain this position until you do otherwise. Do you understand? >> Yes. >> Um remember while doing this position, you're going to be holding holding that position with your foot pointed out and count out loud in 10001 10002 mark. All right. Okay. >> You understand the instructions? >> I understand. >> All right. Like I said, you can pick whatever foot you want, whatever you're comfortable with >> until you say stop. >> Yep. Are you ready? >> Yes. >> Okay. Hold on. Give me a second. Okay. >> Just tell me. >> All right. You go ahead and begin. The one leg stand test. Do you think she will fall over or hold perfect balance? >> 1006 1007 1008 109 1 1900 >> Should I keep going? You can stop. >> Okay. >> She doesn't do much better on this one either. She stops before she's told to and then asks if she can quit. So the officer just rolls with it and lets her. All right. Go me. We're going to come over here for you. Okay. Uh you can stand right there for me. All right. >> No, that's good. Okay. I know it's repetitive, but just go with it. Okay. >> I understand. Yeah. >> All right. What I need you to do, you're going to stand with your feet together. Keep your arms by your side with your index fingers pointed out and maintain this position until you do otherwise. Do you understand? Okay. When I tell you to, you're going to bring the hand I direct upwards touching the tip of your finger to the to the top of your nose. After touching your nose, you're going to immediately bring your hand hand down to your side. You understand? >> Yes. >> All right. So, this is the tip of your nose. This isn't the tip. This is the tip. Not your tip. That's your tip. >> Yes. >> All right. Um, so when I tell you to, you can do left or right. Just the tip like this. I'm going to demonstrate it for you. Arm to your side, fingers pointed out like this. Your head's going to be toes back, eyes closed, but mine's going to be open for you just for demonstration purposes. Okay? So, if I say right, you're going to go ahead right, touch the tip of your nose, right back down. If I say left, left, tip of your nose, right back down. >> Got it. >> The officer now moves on to the finger to nose test. A classic DUI field sobriety test used to check coordination and balance. Let's see if she can actually remember the instructions and follow them this time. Right. Left, right. Right. >> If she can't follow simple instructions or tell how much time has passed, what happens when someone steps into a crosswalk? How long before her foot even hits the brakes? >> Left. >> She didn't do well on the one leg stand test and set her foot down without restarting. Now she lingers with her fingers on her nose way longer than normal. >> Remember the instructions? >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Said left and right. >> Yeah. Remember when you're done, immediately touch the tip of your nose and bring right back so you don't have to hold it. All right. It's not a big deal. All right. So, uh, arms to your side, feet together. And when I tell you, you're going to close your eyes, tilt your head back, and you're going to recite the alphabet. Okay? It's going to be like this. A B C D and so forth. You're not gonna sing it like Lmento P. Okay. Got it. >> You understand the instructions? >> I understand. >> Do me a favor. Close your eyes. >> Okay. >> Tilt your head back. >> Yep. >> Tilt it back. >> Yep. >> Go ahead and begin. A B C D E M G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z. She didn't sing the alphabet, but she also didn't keep her head tilted back like instructed. >> Okay. All right. Uh, next one is called a Romberg balance test. All right. >> Same thing. You're going to stand with your feet together. Keep your arms by your side. You're going to maintain this position until you do otherwise. Do you understand? >> I understand. When I tell you to start, you're going to keep your head tilted back, your eyes closed, and when you think 30 seconds have passed, you're going to say, "Stop." All right. Do not count out loud. Just go ahead and open your eyes. Yeah. >> So, it's going to look like this. Feet together, arms to your side, head towards the back. Close your eyes. You're going to count 30 seconds in your head. You're not going to say it out loud. And when you're done, just open your eyes and say stop. >> Okay. >> Okay. I'll tell you when to begin. All right. How well do you think she will do on judging how much time passes during this test? >> All right, go ahead. I think that's 30. >> 30 seconds. Okay. >> She's slow on her time perception. She called 30 seconds at roughly 38 seconds. That lag suggests slowed reaction time which is common with impairment. >> No, I'm talking about earlier with the wristband. >> Washington DC. >> You came from Washington. You're coming to Washington DC. >> Well, that's where I live now. I go to school at FAU. >> Okay. If I'm talking about the wristband. >> Oh, my wristband. Um, cigar lounge. >> Okay. >> True.
