you're heading home to Milton then do you know the route you were going to take were you following a GPS or I know the route okay so what road is this honestly I don't know this road I just know I go

and I take a loot okay take it to where Milton Milton okay um how much I know you said my partner's on the phone that you had a little bit to drink how much did you have to drink about four drinks four what kind of drinks they were Blackberry Brandy and Coke okay they are a little Pon yes that's all right um but I'm I'm really I'm not this strong I'm I know you hear that all the time but so I'm not this strong okay so what exactly happened here I was it's foggy I was going around a curve and I was lighting a smoke and I just lost control because I was lighting a smoke okay how fast do you think you were going speed limit um 45 okay okay um all right so knowing that it's about 1:20 in the morning uh when was last time you had a drink roughly um like did you finish one as you were walking out the door did you wait an hour before you left I didn't wait an hour no 15 minutes 15 minutes before you left or so you finished your last drink right okay just to confirm you said four Blackberry brandies right is that uh like a pretty average amount for you or is that more than you usually drink or no that's pretty honestly I drink about six six give or take six mixers yeah but six Blackberry brandies sure okay I see that you're wearing some kind of uniform where are you like where you working or from work yes I went to the have a couple drinks before I went home okay where do you work fontia it was my last stay there fontia however you pronounce it I I was told fontia what like what kind of health care it's Assisted Living SL memory care okay all right um so what did you say your name was again ma'am I'm sorry how about tab okay so Tabitha obviously you did have a little bit to drink I know you said it's not abnormal for you to have four drinks or whatever uh but I just want to make sure that you're able to operate a motor vehicle safely cuz obviously based on the driving you crashed a car right so I'm a little concerned about how much you've had to drink so um if you're willing I'm going to take you down to our lobby of our police uh Sheriff's Department which isn't too far down the road I'm going to run you through some tests and I'm going to determine um basically where we're at does that does that work for you otherwise we can take the test out here it's just a little cold so I figured you might want to do it in somewhere warm but it's up to you care so do you want to do them here or do you want to take go inside I don't care I mean I'm fine if you're fine okay then we'll do them right here that's fine um if you just want to hang out with my partner I'm just going to kill my lights and then we're going to start doing the tests okay all right okay have you ever done field sobriety test before you have okay so the first thing I have to have you do is put out your cigarette so either finish it or put it down or whatever you prefer can I have you do me a favor what can you tell him where we are because he's going to be my ride home well at this point you're not free to leave so I can't really tell him where you're at okay I I get where you're coming from and I'll I'll give him that answer as soon as I can but right now I just can't get you're fine you're fine okay so let me just say putet yeah just send your text quick and then we'll be done understand I'm sorry 546 I'm out with you okay so um why don't you come stand right here for me and then just face me okay so the first test first thing I want you to do is I want you to put your feet together and your arms down your sides stand up nice and tall for me okay what color is this light perfect so what I'm going to have you do when I U begin is I'm basically just going to move this back and forth okay I want you to follow the tip of the pen the green light with your eyes and your eyes only don't move your head at any time during this test do you understand that okay do you have any issues with your eyes that I should be aware of do you wear glasses or contacts no no cataracts or anything like that okay sounds good so then I'm going to begin all right remember just follow it the tip of the pen with your eyes and your eyes only do not move your head [Applause] e e [Applause] all right now I'm just going to turn it I'm just going to go up and down okay just keep following with your eyes only all right you can relax um so the next test I'm going to have you do um why don't you come stand over here for me buy your bag you see the white line running right across the ground here okay I'd say that's pretty pretty straight uh nice and level so what I want you to do is I want you to put your left foot on that line for me and then I want you to put your right foot in front of your left foot heel to toe like I'm demonstrating arms not your sides out of your pockets and I want you to stay in this position until I tell you to begin the test do you understand okay so when I have you begin you're going to take a series of nine Heel To Toe steps forward you're going to turn and do nine Heel To Toe steps back it's going to look something like this one two three I did three steps you're going to do nine steps okay when you get to your ninth step you're going to keep your lead foot planted you're going to take a series of small steps like I'm demonstrating you're going to do nine he to steps back one two all the way so when you're doing this make sure your arms are down at your sides you're looking down at your feet you're counting every step out loud and you don't stop the test until you've completed it you understand okay you have any issues with your legs I need to be aware of before we begin okay sounds good whenever you're ready you can begin one 2 3 four five six count 7 8 9 keep going just as I instructed exactly as I explained it to you ma'am I am I'm sorry okay just just keep doing the test to your best of your ability okay one [Music] two three four five [Music] six the next test I'm going to have you do okay is the one leg sand test um so when I tell you to begin you can pick whatever foot of you're troice doesn't matter which you're going to raise one leg about 6 in off the ground okay it's going to look like this you're going to count out loud 101 100002 1003 and so on and so forth until I tell you to stop okay so when you're doing this notice how my arms are down at my sides I'm looking right at my toe my leg is nice and straight and I'm counting out loud like I instructed um don't put your foot down at any time during the test and if you do just bring it right back up um do you have any questions okay you're going to do it for about 30 seconds so I'm going to set a timer right now you know which uh foot you're going to choose right foot okay so why don't you actually stand over here just cuz there's a little bit of a little more level right here just face me okay all right you're going to do your right foot you said okay then whenever you're ready you can begin not very balance three four five keep your arms down your we're still doing 9 10 11 12 13 14 I'm fine 15 all right you stop I'm not very B okay um now I have another little test I'm going to do with you it might seem kind of trivial but just hear me out okay so what I want you to do is I want you to count from the letter or sorry from the number 20 to the number 41 just count up okay from 20 to 41 21 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 3 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 perfect okay and then the next one I want you to do is I want you to go upwards from the letter c to the letter M without singing the alphabet Oh I can't do that even why not what do you mean why not from C to M do you know without singing without singing the song yes I can't do what's your highest level education you completed I mean I graduated high school doctor degree
