Our client was pulled over by FHP for running a stop sign. The Trooper required that our client exit the car, and the situation became confrontational. The Troopper noticed signs of impairment, including red/ glassy eyes, slurred speech, the odor of alcohol and unsteadiness. After our law firm obtained the video, it appeared that the officer may have exaggerated, as the signs of impairment were not noticable on the video. After admitting to consuming a “few drinks” and performing the roadside excerises on videeo, our client was arrested. A breath test was offered, but refused by our client. Our firm filed a Motion To Suppress Evidence, and on the day of the motion, ther DUI charge was dropped.
