end all right so do you have an issue with me just checking your eyes right now no you have an issue okay all right so what I want you to do okay you tap on my pin right here do you see it yep okay what I want you to do wait hold on okay I think that there's a light over there that might be you want to turn this way I would rather do that this week's one you see the tip of the spin okay what I want you to do is I want you to put your hands on your side feet together okay and I want you to stare at the tip of my pen okay with your eyes and your eyes only okay don't move your neck side to side only follow with your eyes and your eyes only okay you understand yep [Applause] foreign [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] all right I'm gonna go vertically okay still follow with your eyes and

all tonight sick or injured if you have any physical defects are you diabetic no are you epileptic nope this way are you seeing a doctor or a dentist at all right now no no are you taking any medications no I mean no no no overall health would you think you're good I'm happy wow all right crazy so so hit me up all right yeah so I think my best I'm gonna ask you okay would you be willing to take some filter writing exercises for me because based off the crash you're telling me you're drinking and whatnot I it's my due diligence and my job to make sure that you're okay to drive yes okay so with that being said would you be willing to consider yourself I'm gonna say no okay um I'm gonna say no okay do you know what the field sobriety exercises are yes I do okay um so with that being said I'll be you know telling me no what happens if I say no yeah sure so basically what happens in this case right it's called the Taylor rule okay what it is is basically you're gonna leave it up to me to base off of my observations of what you see what I see okay if you are able to drive around okay if you do not if you decide to not now the exercises are are they're they're voluntary you don't have to take them yeah okay you know it's up to you now like I said with that being said if you decide that you do not want to take it take the exercise and say you're just you're putting it in my hands to make my decision based off the observations that I see if you are too impaired to draw okay so with that being said you had to go through and do the exercises can I ask you a question sure um I feel like um I'm more tired than anything I feel like I've drove 14 hours yesterday and I'm more tired than I mean obviously I've been drinking um I'm talking to you I'm very normal um I feel like I just fell asleep because I was so tired that I couldn't drive now before I ask you any more questions about that about your day and everything will happen I'm going to read you your Miranda right okay you're not arrested I just before I get into any question like that I would me person I would just like to read this that's fine okay do you have an issue with that no as long as I'm not arrested these questions okay that's fine I I would I would prefer that yeah um okay so right now you have the right to read silent anything you say can will be used to get you in a quarter wall yep so you have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him or her present with you while you're being questioned if you could not afford to hire a lawyer one will be appointed to represent you you can decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statements okay do you understand each of the rights I've explained to you having these rights in mind viewers to talk to me yes okay all right so tell me from the beginning today okay so um I got three hours of sleep okay um I drove from looking at to here and I decided that I was going to stay up all day because I'm willing to regulate myself okay um I think what happened was I had a couple of drinks that exacerbated my tiredness and I fell asleep behind the wheel um thank you I would prefer for someone to drive me home okay and then um now let me talk to you just go back a little bit about the truth okay when was the last time you had a drink do you think oh man um an hour ago because I had a but I have I had water to drink the last time I had I definitely had water and I had to drink an hour ago but I think I think I was just a little tired honestly no what kind of drinks were you drinking tonight uh champagne champagne I didn't have any liquor I didn't have any um um beer I didn't have any I had so any all three glasses of drinks that you say that you had were they all champagne they were I don't drink any any um liquor at all okay don't um and you said the last drink you had was an hour ago yeah where were you coming from I really think I just fell asleep behind the wheel because I I drove 14 hours yesterday um from Virginia to here and that not safe and I probably should have done that and I probably shouldn't have drunk at all any alcohol today um all right so real quick let's go back to what I was saying before about the exercises and whatnot um to you know due to the fact that you know you told me you were drinking you know and had a crash okay so that's kind of when we're out here um now basically like I said the exercise is all voluntary you don't volunteer you don't have to do them okay you know basically you don't want to do them then that goes to my point of what I said before as in the Taylor role is advising me that based off of you know the observations that I see okay you're basically putting it in my hands to make a decision if that you're able to drive or not right and the second the second part that is should you be arrested for DUI the refusal can they use against their core if you do not do the test at home okay so just moving on do you want to participate I guess I I will do it I I don't think that I'm I don't know like I just feel like I'm just so tired I just want to go to sleep so the sobriety exercises are basically like the walking turn exercise okay is the first exercise where you walk 90s or steps forward nine healed still steps back and the next exercise would be the one leg sting okay so those are the two exercises I'm so I drove nine hours yesterday you know what I'm saying and I get it that's a long that's a long drive it's like with my dog I don't know I drove 10 hours from North Carolina last weekend and I could still be able to do the test out there I know that much but I'm not talking to you either right like I'm talking to this officer so moving forward would you like to do the exercises or not if I don't do then what happens again you're basically putting it in my hands I'm I'm too tired I think I'm too tired to do them honestly Okay and like I said they're volunteer do you want to do them around no I really just want someone to drive me home okay all right push your hands on your back okay oh my God foreign [Music] does this go over your head [Music] jumper 23. it's gonna be a DUI Crush she said there's no pockets in there my fingers in the door my fingers gonna do it oh you're good all good that's my bad yeah camera
