Lee County, FL. A complaint dispatched to local authorities reported a blue Dodge Ram with Florida tags driving erratically. The eye witness claimed the truck hit a curb and was weaving. The police dispatched to the call followed the vehicle for several blocks before pulling the driver over suspecting
alcohol intoxication. The officers made contact with the female driver and claimed they smelled a strong odor of alcohol on her breath. They asked her to perform standard field sobriety testing.
The officers concluded from the tests that the woman was too impaired to operate a vehicle and placed her under arrest. Search of the vehicle revealed two bottles of Hydrocodone pills. The driver was placed under arrest and charged with Driving Under the Influence, under Fla. Statute 316.193(1) and Possession of a Controlled Substance without a perscription, under Fla. Statute 893.13.
