Um, did you have your driver's license? On May 27th, 2025, at approximately 12:58 a.m., Officer Nicholas Simons with the Villa Park Police Department observed a white 2017 Hyundai Sonata driving erratically as it was headed westbound on St. Charles Road in the vicinity of Ardmore Avenue. He activated his dash camera to observe its driving patterns, and the driver swerved in the vicinity of Michigan Avenue. The vehicle continued swerving between Kennaworth Avenue and Emerson Avenue and nearly struck the right curb while approaching Emerson Avenue. Just before he activated his emergency lights, the driver swerved again between Eivision Street and Washington Boulevard before proceeding to turn right onto Washington Boulevard and striking the curb at the northwest corner of the intersection. The driver then pulled over along the north curb of Washington Boulevard in neighboring Lombard, Illinois. >> Insurance with you? >> Yes. >> So why would you just abruptly say that you were on your phone?

Deputy Shipkovsky with the DuPage County Sheriff's Office was also on scene to assist with the traffic stop. He asked the driver for her documents and she was identified as 24year-old Jessica Spencer. She told the officer that she was heading home from Deito's saloon. He asked her if she had anything to drink and she admitted to consuming alcohol earlier that evening. Based on his suspicion of impairment, Jessica was asked to exit the vehicle and perform field sobriety exercises. >> Oh. Um, um, I have a DUI on my record. Okay. I don't know if that will like show up because like somebody pulled me over like 3 months ago for detecting him driving >> and he said that he didn't see anything but it's there. >> Okay, that's fine.

Officer Simon started with the horizontal gaze neistagmas HGN test. During the HGN test, Officer Simons observed the lack of smooth pursuit, distinct and sustained nestagmas at maximum deviation and the onset of nestagmas prior to 45°. He did not observe vertical nestagmas. The second exercise was the walk and turn test. During the walk and turn test, Jessica did not touch heel to toe on each step, turned improperly, and took an incorrect number of steps. The final exercise was the one leg stand test. During the one leg stand test, Jessica failed to raise her foot in the proper fashion and put her foot down before the test was complete. >> Okay. You wear glasses or contacts at all? >> No. >> Okay. How's your general health other than that than what you honestly? Okay. >> Honestly, good. So, Jessica, based on some of the driving behaviors I've I've seen from you tonight and your admission to consuming a little bit of alcohol, before I let you drive off, I want to make sure that you're okay to drive. >> Okay. So, uh just hang out right here for a second. You mind staying with her for a second? >> Yeah. [Applause] Hey, Jess, I'm going have you come right to the front of your car over here.

You said you were texting, and I don't It's not that I don't believe you, but you've also made a couple admissions to drinking tonight. Okay? So, I before I let you go, to quash my suspicions, I need to make sure that you're okay to drive. Okay?
