purse no in my car okay what's in your purse oh my okay and is that something that you need like throughout the night yes okay I need it all 24/7 okay so I'm not entirely sure that they're going to let you take the purse or the medication do you mind if I take it off your is it unclip it's or I just just on my shoulder okay so I'm going to have to take one cuff off to be able to take it off all right so I'm only taking one Co off to be able to take the purse off but you are under arrest okay for DWI okay go ahead and take the purse off is that a monitor on your arm that's what that's for yeah both on my arm okay okay so typically I would read you the implied consent advisory right now I don't have a card on me so I'll read it to you at the office but I'm going to check that your mouth is clear um and make sure that you don't have anything in your mouth okay yeah so go ahead and pick up your tongue okay okay so your mouth is clear do you have anything else in your pockets on your person no okay so I'm just going to pat down your pockets just Pat them down other than that I saw you take your boots off so can't imagine that you would be hoarding anything in the boots okay so I'm just going to check to make sure that it is medical things in here and then um we'll probably take it with us but I can't imagine that they would I just see money and cards and then my okay so do you want the monitor is the monitor that it's like a phone it's in my car okay where is that at it's in the dash under the screen okay the driver assured the officer that she was medically fit the officer then explained the walk and turn and oneel leg stand tests which are commonly used to assess sobriety the police officer informed the female driver that based on her performance in the sobriety tests she would be taken into custody the officer arrested her and secured her inside the patrol vehicle so there's like a button that opens your dash no or it's underneath and it's right there glasses case Okay so walk with me this way do you have somebody that can come pick up the vehicle or should I do I need to tow it uh you can call my mom okay your phone is where uh it's in the car okay what does it look like it has a sunflower case on it okay um so your phone has me this how close the proximity like really close so if it's in my front seat will it read yeah okay all right so get 104 was 106 Fields show me 1015 for 47 at this time mouth was checked and cleared I don't have a implied consent card on me at the moment I'll read it at the 81 104 hello does she have her phone do you guys have somebody that can come pick you up can I see her phone please she's requesting it and then she said she had another little monitor that's to check her it's underneath the screen she said not that red case gles uh underneath no or glasses as well I would have to look okay try do me a favor in looking for it um if you know what it looks like then I'll be right back but if you guys could get somebody to come pick you guys up get out oh just is it on this side you think I'mma peek in I don't think I see it so try not to get out of the vehicle if you would you sir I'm sorry I'm okay to drive I mean I hours D but that's okay no so I'm I'm not going to release the vehicle to you just cuz I'm not going to run you through tests and then have to deal with that all extra she's going to call somebody to come pick up the vehicle okay give me a minute but if you can check my blood sugar and see what it's at where's that at uh the far left one the green one the far left greenen oh the very bottom okay so it's signaling 30 minutes so that means it's going to be high just because cuz my blood sugar is going to be high so it's going to smell like nail polish or liquor so okay typically do I just want to have proof of that okay yeah if that's okay yeah because I was just trying to pick up my friends but it's going to it's going to pull up nail polish remover or liquor on the Dexcom and it's saying 30 minutes so it's because it was far far from me right now yeah so it's trying to connect again okay so help me help me try to understand this with you having signs or like so with your um no sorry let me let me ask the question with you having that and it being far or whatever and it's going to show that um so the nail Clash remover is going to it's going to be similar symptoms of liquor because anytime you are high or low the blood sugar So Below 80 or over 250 it's going to come up as like high or low and it's going to be similar symptoms of having liquor in your system or nail plush remover so like it's going to like I don't know how to explain it to you like like so okay so if you pull someone over and they have liquor in their system their mouth is dry right right okay so that's the same thing as pulling someone over and the blood sugar being high or low and their mouth being dry because of the similar symptom that's okay so what I'm saying is you also showed signs and clues during my test and Performing poorly as far as walking um yeah and things like that and it's similar because as a you're going to show similar signs to similar signs to someone with like alcohol in their system okay and give me one second okay it's fine sorry no you're good um so the adrenaline rush is going to make my blood sugar go high just so you know okay so do me a favor again we're going to look at the tip of my finger okay that's fine your eyes and your eyes [Music] only she was then transported to the police station for further investigation upon arriving at the police station the female driver was asked to take a breathalyzer test but she refused to comply this refusal prompted the officers to scrutinize her identification further okay so the other officer that I called um does DW ice for a living like that's his bread and butter okay so I called him to verify cuz I did read what you were telling me it's accurate right it is however he says if you still exhibit signs of nagus after 2 seconds then there's alcohol on board so if um was in a a place where it was exhibiting signs that would show me like the alcohol I mean symptoms like similar to alcohol right so um that's the way that I can verify it um we're going to go from now from here right now okay so I cannot force or I cannot force you to take our test but if you refuse you will lose your new medical driver's license or non-resident operating privilege for one year if you are convicted in court of driving while under the influence you may also receive a greater sentence because you refuse to be tested do you understand yes okay so just cuz I have to read it your right to speak to an attorney or remain silent does not apply to the can I use tell me I'm not looking at what I'm looking at you're not a fake ID that was B for me and you have it within your possession Sor and you have it within your possession it was I could put it in there in your wallet no where you pulled your other ID from my other ID wasn't in there okay what you need water can I peat yes later the female driver was presented in court where she faced multiple charges reckless driving for her erratic behavior on the road failure to follow traffic laws and maintain proper lane discipline driving under the influence of alcohol and using a fake ID card each charge reflected a serious breach of legal standards
