I got to look up your uh mean driver. >> Yeah, there's there's some holding cells and stuff in the Delaware Police Department. >> He doesn't he doesn't know if you're going home tonight or if you have to go to the county jail. That's where he's got to look at your driving history to figure that out. Oh, >> okay. So, I could possibly bail out tonight. >> Well, there wouldn't be a bail if if depending on if you've had prior OVIs. Some are the court makes us take you to jail and some the court doesn't. So, he has to look at your history. So, sometimes you have like he's going to take you to either our jail or the county jail so you can do a breath test or offer you a breath test. >> Well, I'm probably going to blow over. Not going to lie. I mean, I'm I might I don't I don't know. I had like two beers, so I honestly I don't know. >> Okay. >> I don't [ __ ] know. Um but I didn't think I did too bad on the test. I don't understand what I don't I mean like So there it's like small nuances that we're looking for, man. So >> what are those? It's actually like a week of training that we go to to work for things. So it's like in the police academy we go it's like a week long thing. So we're looking for things that you don't understand. No, you didn't fall over or anything like that, but we're looking for >> Yeah. I'm not I'm not saying you're like hammer drunk by any means, but I I think you're over a 08 and that's why you're being placed under arrest. Okay. Because the legal limit is 08. >> But I'm asking you why. What were the key indicating factors that made you >> think that I was over the limit? >> Yeah. B based on my training experience, the eyes never lie, man. So, you had way too many clues in your eyes. Yep. >> Yep. You had way too many clues. So, when you're drinking, it's called nestagmas in your eyes and it's the involuntary jerking of the eyes. >> So, that that was the start of it, but there was stuff on all of them. Um, >> let's walk you over the car so you can get warm. >> Yeah, we can do that. We're doing this second one over here. I was getting arrested. >> You want to do the second one? Yeah. Okay. >> You hear me? >> What's that, man? >> Say y'all don't have to be on the edge. >> You seem like you're being a nice guy. >> Yeah. Yeah. We don't We just have the way we do cuz you want >> Yeah. I'm going to I'm going to double check. >> He's got search real quick. Oh boy. >> You said there you said there wasn't anything in your uh in your pockets. All right. I didn't feel anything on the outside of your clothes. So >> I know it's cold. I'm going to turn the heater on as soon as we get in there. Okay. Do you have any like chest pockets at all? Doesn't look like it. Okay. Just a little weed. I'll throw that in your uh in your car for you. Okay. All right. I said no. >> What's happening? >> Knowing that that le weed is legal now. >> Yeah. No. Okay. So, I said no. It's not illegal. >> I did. I wasn't like lying. >> Oh, no. You're good. You're good. You're good. I'm not I'm not saying I'm You just can't take it with you right now. Okay. Well, that's that's the only reason why we're taking >> Give it to your girlfriend. Is there anything in your socks at all? Nope. You're >> nope. You've been cool with us the whole time, so I appreciate that. Uh, anything in your back pocket? I don't even know if you got one. All right, you can have a seat. I'm going to hold on your arm just so you don't fall. Okay, there you go. And I'm going to turn the heat on for you cuz I know it's a little cold in here. Oh, god damn it, dude. So, what is the what's the procedure on possibly not going to jail? So it's it's based on your your driving record. So if you've had three or more convictions, you have to have OVI convictions. >> I have not. >> Okay. They got pled down or they they they you beat them or whatever. >> I just haven't. >> Okay. Um so I just I just got to double check and make sure you don't have the specified amount in the time frame that we need. So I got to look it up cuz typically it's nobody's even close when I do this. So I just got [clears throat] to double check cuz I don't want to screw it up. Right. In the meantime, I got a couple things I got to read to you. First one is a random warning. You have the right You have the right to remain silent. Anything you got to read it. >> I I have to read it, man. That's our policy. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in court. You have the right to consult with an attorney and have an attorney present during questioning. If you cannot afford an attorney, one can be provided to you before questioning at no cost. Do you understand these rights? >> I do. >> Okay. Thank you. Um and then the other the other form I got to read you is the BMV 2255. Uh, it's like I don't know, it'll take like 5 minutes or whatever, but I have to read it to you. Yeah, it it takes a while. It's a it's a state form. We have to read it to you. So, let me turn the heat on. I'll grab that form. I'll read that to you and then we'll get moving. Okay. >> All right. [snorts] >> I'm going to pull this in front of your face so you can read along cuz it we have to read it and show it to you. >> So, we're going to start up at the the top up here. Okay. >> Yep. We're going to start all the way at the very top. I got to read that whole top section and then the very bottom section. Okay. I'll I'll point out where we're at when when we switch section. >> So, the top one, consequences of test and refusal must be read to OVI, physical control offender. You're now under arrest for OVI, operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol, a drug, or combination of them, operating a vehicle while under the influence of elicit controlled substance or elicit metabolite of a controlled substance, operating a vehicle after underage alcohol consumption, or having physical control of a vehicle while under the influence. If you refuse to take any chemical test required by law, your Ohio driving privileges will be suspended immediately and you'll have to pay a fee to have the privileges reinstated. If you have a prior conviction of OVI or operating a vehicle while under the influence of elicit controlled substance or elicit metabolite of a controlled substance under state or municipal law within the preceding 20 years, you are now under arrest for state OVI. And if you refuse to take a chemical test, you will face increased penalties if you subsequently are convicted of the state OVI. Uh if you take any chemical test required by law and are found to be at or over the prohibited amount of alcohol, a controlled substance, or metabolite of a controlled substance in your whole blood, blood blood serum, or plasma, breath, or urine as set by law. Your high driving privileges will be suspended immediately, and you'll have to pay a fee to have the privileges reinstated. If you take a chemical test, you may have an independent chemical test taken at your own expense. So, we're going to run all the way down to the bottom down there >> under that last black line there. >> Notice of suspension independent of any penalties or sanctions imposed upon you pursuant to any other section of the revised code or municipal code or the municipal ordinance, excuse me. Your driver's license or commercial driver's license permit or non-resident operating privilege is now suspended. The suspension takes effect immediately. The suspension will last at least until your initial appearance on the charge, which will be held within 5 days after the date of this arrest or the issuance of a citation to you. You may appeal the suspension at the initial appearance before the court that hears the charges against you that resulted from the arrest or during the period of time ending 30 days after that initial appearance. All right. Uh, so it looked like you had some priors on there. So I just got to double check on on what you got. You just have to be convicted of them. So, you said you weren't convicted of them? >> Uh, I was convicted of one. >> You were convicted of one >> in 2018. >> Okay. >> 17 or 18. >> Okay. So, we'll double check those and then uh I'll come back and talk to you. Okay. >> We got this. If you want to roll out, get started on >> All right. >> Cuz he's got one priority. is going to count, right? >> Yeah. I just got to double check that he's convicted of it. So, all right. >> Oh, bet. I'm sure she's ready for us to
