This Street Cop Bodycam video follows a DUI traffic stop after a driver is observed running red lights late at night. During initial questioning, the driver admits to having drinks “a couple hours ago,” but struggles to track time and appears confused. Officers note the odor of alcohol, slow movements, and inconsistent answers. She claims anxiety and a prior leg/hip injury, which she says affects her balance. Officers conduct a series of field sobriety tests, giving multiple opportunities and clear instructions: Walk-and-turn test with repeated balance loss One-leg stand attempts that fail within seconds Alphabet recitation with mistakes and restarts Horizontal gaze nystagmus (HGN) test performed per procedure Despite explanations and second chances, the signs of impairment continue to stack up. Officers explain their reasoning calmly and methodically, building probable cause step by step. The situation takes a quieter turn when the driver is informed she is under arrest, but will not be taken to jail. Instead, she is transported to the department for processing, issued a citation, and later released. She mentions calling her mother for pickup, underscoring the personal impact of the stop. This video shows how DUI investigations don’t always end dramatically — sometimes they end with paperwork, accountability, and a long night of consequences.
