The willingness to destroy someone's life is mind blowing
Just POS cops who will have some karma come their way
It not the willingness, it’s the eagerness that’s scary. The cop was fishing for a DUI at all cost
these cops deserve the worst punishment possible. who knows what else she accuses people off.
sir did u rape a child?
dude: the fuck man hell no
cop: eventually u will. turn around sir. i need to cuff you for raping a kid.
@@miciso666 I agree. And just like with pedophiles. If we gave cops harsher punishments. We would have less bad cops
DUI is bot a destroyed life, But i get it. I dont like cops at all since they are a bunch of sociopaths
She makes the right choice and is punished for it? No wonder there is a disconnect between police and citizens. smh.
The right choice would’ve been not to drink and break the law in the first place.
@@j0epark1I think you must be stupid because you've missed the part where she didn't break the goddamn law
@j0epark1 oh no, she drank then didnt drive,call the cops
@@j0epark1 There is no problem with drinking. And she did the smart right choice in choosing not to endanger anyone by not driving. I understand the law is the law but it's a stupid law and should be changed.
@@j0epark1Drinking is not illegal and sitting in a parked car (even when drunk) should not be illegal, too. Context matters. This basically means if you're drunk you can't be near your car. Just idiotic.
I have a client charged with DWI after blowing a 0.00 and having a blood test which showed neither drugs nor alcohol. She overheard a supervisor say to the arresting officer “you shouldn’t have arrested her.” This is going to be a big problem for the county.
Good. Give the county HELL!
Please keep us updated on the case Sir!
In the end the taxpayer will pay for it and the cops get off easy
@@thejumper7282Do cops pay taxes?
Good, and I hope you make it a big problem for them!
It's absolutely disgusting how they get together and conspire to ruin the life of a person who obviously did the responsible thing and stayed in place to sober up, instead of driving.
Lol this is nothing I had a cop detain me and search me 20 times because he's senile friend told him I'm a bad guy...
He would stop and search me every time he saw me.
I ended up moving to another city
Indeed, this is why so many law-abiding citizens hate cops.
*“Who obviously did the responsible thing”*
She’s 19. If she was being responsible she wouldn’t have been drinking…
@@whywelovefilm7079 this comment sounds absurd coming from another country. If you can vote and be enlisted, you should be able to drink
These are the same type of side convo that car dealerships and bank managers have with their agents. Whatever generates money,do it .
Lesson the kids have learned: go ahead and drive home so you don’t go to jail...
Only a bunch of douchebags would have arrested this girl for DUI. It’s a shame she even gave them the time of day.
I once knew a guy who used to be a cop and he told me there are two types of people who become cops 1. assholes and 2. people who were picked on or bullied in highschool and want retribution on society.
Honestly, that's my takeaway from this too. Driving home drunk seems like the better option.
I've been woken up and arrested 3 times for sleeping in my truck after a 6 pack or more, in a private parking lot.
@@buxe4042luckily I was never caught. I used to keep a blanket and a pillow behind my seat, would pull it out and climb into the bed of my truck and pass out in the bars parking lot.
Yep atleast u have a legit reason to arrest at that point smh might as well drive
So, she could’ve saved money on the Uber, actually drove while intoxicated, and had the same result? Wow! Thanks for saving the world officers!
You make a good point. To be completely honest, whilst I don’t condone driving while intoxicated at the illegal blood alcohol level, if she did that after she had to deal with this, I wouldn’t blame her.
Alternatively their Uber could have taken them back to one of their houses and they could have slept it off and collected the car the next day.... Oh wait, they couldn't do that cos despite being 19 they were illegal to drink and would have got reamed by their parents for drinking at a party so they went to a car park instead and technically did a mild crime. Cops were horrendous and it ended in a mess. Wrong all round.
Police officers have discretionary powers to make judgement calls. She (the cop) could've had the girl call an uber, family, or friends to pick her up & leave it at that. But no, she'd rather destroy her life with this overzealous crap.
And then they wonder why so many ppl hate them
I call them domestic terrorists.
I’m the only one that doesn’t buy that there was an Uber. I would’ve been calm but upset that I’m getting arrested if I didn’t drive. They were respectful cause they were lying.
My brother was asleep in his car in the parking lot of a bar. While cops were cruising the parking lot they saw him, woke him, and after talking to him for a few minutes they arrested him for DUI. His lawyer not only got the officers reprimanded, but he also got my brother $60K for false arrest because the car was off, they never actually saw him driving the car, and they didn't offer him a field sobriety test. In our state, if the car is off, the engine is cold, you're asleep, and the car is parked on private property they cannot arrest you for DUI.
It's a good thing he got a good lawyer! Without one they're gonna do their damnest to make the charges stick!
Under these laws you could be drinking in the comfort of your own home, forget something in your vehicle, go out to get it with no intention of operating said vehicle and still be at risk of a DUI charge if the cops happened to notice and investigate. It's ridiculous.
The wording is ambiguous enough that standing on your porch with your keys in your pocket could be argued as intent to operate or some such bullshit.
You could literally be drinking & working under your car with the keys in the ignition to play music and get a dui. 🥴
I know a cop who was off duty and got hit with this same situation. Outside his own apartment and went outside to his car to smoke. It was a cold night in Colorado so he had the engine running for warmth. He has been drinking inside and got a DUI.
These laws of the US lol crazy
It’s Floriduh. 🤷🏻♀️
The lesson here is: Never be fair to police because they won't be to you.
Lesson here is
1) Uber home instead of to your car
2) Dont get caught drinking under the age (saying "dont drink under age" is not realistic)
She was a smart kid, but tried to cut a corner of ubering to her car and sleeping it off instead of home to save a dollar.
Always invoke 5th, refuse all tests, ask for lawyer. Don't talk... not even to tell them your name. Don't even talk to confirm that you even exist. Your only legal requirement is to produce ID when you are being arrested or pulled over for citation... depending on the laws of your state... but no talking... Say nothing other than to ask if you are free to go or that you invoke your 5th rights or asking for a lawyer. Talking to the police cannot, and I do mean CANNOT help you.
"Anything you say can and will be used against you."
It makes a Lawyers job easier to fight for you if you say NOTHING!
@@Deeppurp what's wrong with sleeping in your car if you feel that you cannot continue?
@Pawelandbajer nothing he's just a bootlicker who can't help but defend cops
@@Deeppurpher father probably would have beat and assaulted her if he caught her drunk. Florida people are sick
I love how it takes 20 cops to arrest a 19yo girl. These clowns truly have nothing better to do.
@jsmesavery9584 Yes,and on the other side of town drunks everywhere people getting robbed but they are all here with this young harmless girl feeling big...I dont drink at all and had my 6 year old son in back seat sleeping under his blanket, i left out to go pick my husband up from the bar to keep a drunk off the rd...I parked a d before he came out 4 different time an officer pulled behind me...one wanted to know who i was hiding in my back seat...I said my 6 year old son...the next officer ask how much i had to drink, the other pulked up and said my tags didnt match my car but hes not gonna tow me cause its cold and i had my son...few mins later 10 men in black jumped out of the tree line and surrounded my car like a bunch of fools...I was doing nothing and they got me for nothing just harassing me...meanwhile at least 6 different people drove off drunk off there ass with no problem, they were to worried about me, the only sober one on the lot...I said alot to each and everyone of them but i dont wanna write a book for u to read on here😂😂😂...LE are out of control everywhere!!!!
They are just waiting for her to defend her rights so they can pin her to the ground.
That's the new way don't you know! It's a result of them being overstaffed abd seriously I learned this statistically there has been a decrease in serious crime so they spend their time harassing and arresting innocent citizens for petty misdemeanors. Oh abd btw they only resolve 5% of serious crime investigations. Nit an impressive track record. It's become blatantly obvious too b many cops show up to a simple traffic stop
You not just imagining things. These officers don't have enough work ie; crimes to solve.
This is what happens in small Towns, when nothing else is going on.
This taught me its better to risk driving home than risk sitting, waiting and getting a dui
@Onechime It taught me to just go back to my dorm room rather than sit in the drivers seat of a running vehicle passed out drunk.
Gotta love when a cop literally admits that they are just out to "get" people. This is why answering a cop's questions NEVER helps you out, and only helps them to get you.
Yea the cops decided she was going to jail before she ever got out of the car. By agreeing to the biased tests you do nothing but hurt your attorneys chances to get you out of trouble. Never agree to anything voluntary that will incriminate you.
been noticing this vernacular quite often with police now. they’re all about cops vs people and not cops and people vs criminals
NEVER EVER! Welll said.
i’ve noticed that a lot lately
Officer's having it out for responsible citizens all for the sake of reaching that arrest quota.
Its really sad this wasnt an opportunity to build trust with the public. This young lady did all the cooperating a cop could ask for, and they still arrested her.
I mean it's easy. The cop decided she was guilty as soon as they pulled up to her car. Can't get more clear cut than that, the officer is trained in determining who is a criminal, and that girl was a big one!
@@Watchmanadmin I dunno about "a big one" since I felt she had a valid claim that they were just sitting in the car. But I do agree the intent from the start was to arrest her.
I understand the cops did nothing wrong here, but still really wish this girl was given a warning instead of a DUI charge that will have major impacts on her life. She seemed to have the type of demeanor and character that could benefit more from a close call/warning, even if it was her intent to drive home that night.
11:40 “This is my house” She could have passed out in her friends house but decided to wait in her car to get sober? Too intoxicated to make decisions it’s a good arrest
@@anonymoush5454 and that's why I made sure at the end of my comment to make it a point that she still may have had the intent to drive home, cause I agree, it was very strange her friend lived there and they didn't go inside. My best guess is that she wasn't allowed to stay overnight in her dorm, and she was planning to drive home.
Still doesn't change my view that she could have benefited more from a warning. It's hard to recover in life from some of these charges, and sometimes people need a second chance.
If we all were judged so harshly on our mistakes, all of us would have a miserable life.
@@jonathanzimmer6831 not judging a mistake, I’d be prosecuted by god for mine lol. But they showed impairment in their decision making because nobody thinking logically would choose to sober up in their car instead of their friends house. Especially when they’re in the parking lot of her home. And if she’s sobering up, but passed out, she’s not sobering up any time soon. I’d dui them for sure because you never know if they’ll do it again and make the wrong choice to drive next time
Thank you officers for ruining a honest 19 year old girl life after making a responsible decision of not driving. I feel a lot safer knowing you guys are keeping us safe. Nice to know our tax money goes to these resources. 🎉👏🐷
The key was in the ignition and the tail lights were on. She was underaged driving. The law is the way it is because there is no way to verify that she wasn't about to drive, so they set the line at being in the driver's seat with the keys, which she was.
Now, that said, there are a couple things I would have liked to see the cops check. First, put you hand on the hood to see if it's warm. That checks to see if she has already been driving. Next, ask her if she is willing to show her Uber account info. If she and her friend had already been sitting there a while her claim that they were not planning on driving is a bit better...
But here is the thing... a lot of drunk people might sit and wait until they felt safe to drive, but a lot of drunk people would still decide to drive well before they are safe to drive.
@@nacoranImagine getting sentenced for murder because you COULD have stabbed me with the knife in the kitchen. Dumbest shit ever, being sentenced for something you never did but COULD do.
@@nacoranfuture hypothetical crimes
@@nacoranmight as well make it illegal to be drunk. A drunk guy might get in a car and drive, no proof e would not. So stupid
That wasn’t her first DUI
So the incentive is to drive when you are drunk because you will certainly be charged with DUI if you think you had too much to drink and want to wait in your car until you sober up to be safe. Brilliant, truly brilliant. Years ago, cops would thank you for being responsible and ask you to sleep it off.
I did a dui course. The number of people that were arrested for sleeping in their car instead of driving home was ridiculous.
I know several, shits ridiculous
Right but sleeping in your car isn't legal either.
Just choosing the lesser of two illegal things doesn't make it ok.
@MeCooper cool I'll just tell people to drive drunk then since it doesn't matter 🤷
@@dhuran21 I like how you're pretending that this is some kind of binary option.
What kind of fullblown alcoholic mindset do you have to have that makes you think that you're only options are either drink driving or passing out in your car?
@@MeCooper You don't own the car you own the right to drive the car huh lol. Fuck american laws lol.
Considering that she likely wouldn't have gotten a DUI if she had actually just driven home, these officers are actually making the roads more dangerous by effectively encouraging you to just drive home in this scenario.
This is what I was thinking....police teach people the "wrong" things from their actions....next time, this girl may just drive intoxicated instead... because of this bad interaction. I missed a court date once for a traffic ticket....I called and asked how to fix this mistake I made....they told me to just come in to the police station and I could get a new court date issued.....I showed up and was immediately arrested ...having to post a $200 bond to get out of the jail.....Tried to do the "right thing" and got screwed over....lesson learned....I now never trust police.
@@billtate6962A traffic ticket? What was the ticket for?
@@realflyyrealeyesit’s kind of irrelevant. If you don’t pay a 10 over speeding ticket you get a bench warrant issued.
ive been in her situation , what i was told is to just throw your keys in the back seat or in the trunk and you should be saved
Yep. That’ll teach her to think twice about thinking twice about driving home drunk.
Seems like the cop was set on ruining this young lady's life.
Their cops. The fact that you believe they would is astounding.
@@krane15you're incredibly naive if you believe otherwise
@@krane15they’re. Also you don’t watch many videos on this channel do you
“can we still get her even if she didnt drive?”
Yep! It's because those FREAKING cops have a *QUOTA* for absolutely everything: tickets, citations, fines, arrests. It's policing by numbers and it's got nothing to do with protecting the public. Every cop is compelled to make their quota. It's policing by numbers which is meaningless. When the cop has achieved their quota for the month, does that mean that *CRIME STOPS OCCURRING* ???? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Who invented THAT dumb idea???
It's absolutely stupid that any State or court would find that sleeping in your parked car so as to NOT drive under the influence, is a crime.
Cant stop real criminals but preys on college kids, she needs to be fired
bro worse needs to happen but i cant say what else ill get slapped by retarded owners.
I wouldn't go that far. It was a jack-ass thing to do, for sure but the cop was within legal rights to do as she did. I imagine there must be a course that would benefit her though. Like there are courses for de-escalation for cops that make matters worse, something similar but that applies to what she did. Maybe something that teaches cops to apply the laws in the spirit they were given because this young lady was clearly not an intended target for this law.
The real problem, in my opinion is the law. Some sort of proof that the person had driven, or was intending to drive while under influence should also be necessary at the very least.
NO WONDER THE LAW ENFORCEMENT COMMUNITY IS HATED BY SO MANY.
It’s safer. Real criminals are dangerous.
@@alex86firethe break lights were on. That’s proof that she was in control. She should’ve taken an Uber home and the next day come back for her car.
My sister got a charge of “Permitting a DUI” by having her boyfriend at the time drive her car. Fun fact: her boyfriend was breathalyzed on the scene and blew a 0.02…he beat his DUI and she STILL was found guilty of Permitting a DUI when no DUI occurred.
That's crazy did she have a lawyer is that a misdemeanor I never even heard of that have to look that up
@@chucktalor716 West Virginia 17C-5-2h
because there was a dollar to be made and a promotion to be given. So disappointing.
That's effed up!!!
Next they will charge rape victims for "allowing a rape".
Wow...Florida's law is insane. A 12 year old kid playing in papas car which is legally parked on the street could in theory be arrested.
"Can we get her" really shows the officers attitude about what policing is all about
Hard to imagine that this young woman making a choice to not drive while intoxicated was the worst crime happening around the area at the time.
Cops can solve more than one crime at a time.
Yeah she didn't mean to drive cuz she said so right? Not like people lie to avoid trouble or anything
Good point. All this video did was to make the cops look petty.
she was Charged for DUI which she didnt do!@@iamme25yago

That's bull shit that they can get her for a DUI when she wasn't driving.
sitting in a parking lot is not the definition of driving , Thats all she needs in court
@@cardboardboxificationI'd say otherwise it's a violation of civil rights. The constitution.
@@cardboardboxification she did break the law that most states hold. She could still likely win in court since she was compliant, had clear cognitive ability, was able to voice her objective of not driving, and had no prior offenses.

Was honest from the very beginning ✅
Remained respectful and compliant ✅
"Got her" anyway ✅
Wow, cops are cold and so is this channel for giving the cops a B-.
According to laws police did everything right.
Bootlickers will defend it anyway
You can’t blame police for this one. It’s this dumb system of policing for profit why this happened. They hand out arrest quotas for the cops to follow and write these vague laws giving the officers the ability to do this. The people we should be made at are the law makers and the police departments who want the officers arresting as many people as possible. Including a law abiding citizen like this girl.
Only dumb sheep follow laws, I bet some people like nazi Germany was okay because they were follow laws/orders. Sick people in this world.

@@notdash1 never heard the phrase "just because you can, doesnt mean you should"? Cops were on a powertrip
@@niesy I definitely agree, she was cooperating and probably should have just have gotten a warning or ticket. But the cops weren’t HARASSING her
I learned this almost 20 years ago in a small town in MO. I got hammered at the bar, decided driving wasn't a wise decision. Hopped in the passenger seat to sleep it off. Cop shows up and informed me that I could still technically get a DUI. BUT the officer appreciated my decision and simply told me to be careful in the future as I could get a DUI, but he wouldn't punish a obvious smart decision with a technicality of the law.
My brother in a similar situation was woke up by a cop and told he had to move his truck. When he did, they hit him with a DUI.
@@barongerhardt Back in the late 1990's, I got ran off by Virginia Beach police while sleeping in a parking lot. I drove drunk to a secluded dirt road and went back to sleep. The next thing I know my car was lit up like daytime and two very angry MPs were yelling that I was on a military base. Not a good night but no DUI.
@@barongerhardt that sounds about right. he should sue, they baited him into that...
This is what should happen. The law has to draw a line somewhere, but it sucks when people are unaware of where the line actually is.
@@barongerhardt the cops did that to me when i was 19. I was drunk in my apartment and they got called on a noise complaint. Idk what I said, but I was being belligerent. The cop then said they were going to arrest me for public intoxication and I said "this is my private domicile, it is not public property by definition as there is a lock and I reside here" ... the officer then physically yanked me and as soon as my foot touched the pavement outside my apartment, he slammed me to the ground and said "well look at that, you're not in your private domicile anymore" - I was then arrested and charged with PI, MIP, resisting arrest, disorderly and spent 3 days in jail before my parents came to get me out.
THIS is the kind of thing that gets my blood boiling. She made the right choice, we all know that, and yet she was treated as a criminal with a potentially life ruining arrest. This is NOT OK by any standards, and not what law enforcement is supposed to be about.
Good job officer's. 👏 Good job on further dividing the community from you and not be on your side. This girl has more responsibility than 99% of those who decide to drive while impared.
Driving home would have been the better option.
You know they drove home bumping Lana Delray slamming those energy drinks before they got home and checked out, too faded to even get through the front door!
@@TheJoshEoS Funny you know so much that you can't see happening. Guilty until proven innocent.

American drinking laws be wild yo
@whysosensitive No no she's pretty gril they can't do anything wrong. What are laws for if you can't break em
That is the outrageous bit
@@maltheri9833Your satire is misplaced. The law itself is overly broad and, in this case, got someone arrested for doing the smart thing of not driving while drunk. The individual is virtually irrelevant to the subject at hand that needs mocking, the law itself is.
It seems as if there were other, more relevant laws that should have been raised first rather than driving while drunk when that wasn't the case.
It's very telling that the cop said, "Can we still get her?" The cops are not out to protect public safety, the cops are out to "get people!"
The officer even asked “CAN we still charge them” instead of asking herself if she SHOULD charge them.
You know, good policing could’ve handled this differently. Verify the student did indeed take an Uber to the car, and that she wasn’t driving it, then carefully explain to her that in Florida you _can_ be arrested for DUI just for sitting in the driver seat with ready access to the keys, write her a warning or documentation for the incident, have her secure the vehicle and call a cab or ride share to take everyone home safely.
I agree, plus the fact that she's only 19, she's just starting adult life, her innocence was understandable.
Great job police! You completely destroyed a young 19 yr old's life forever! You've set an example for the young generation letting them know that you're going to have a better chance of driving home drunk, not getting caught, rather than sitting it out and sobering up... What a disgrace!! Shame on them! I knew someone that this happened to. It really destroyed them financially for years and years. They said that the courts owned them for life and they'd never get caught up or get the job they wanted. It's really awful.
Not a good thing to have on your record, but you really are being overly dramatic. She doesn't need to end her life because of this.
It's just a dui lol, and honestly you're not allowed to be in the driver's seat under the influence. If they chilled in the back it would have been a different story.
Literally learned this back in the early 00s when I got my license. We learned shit like if you go to your vehicle at a house party - unlock it from the house with the fob and enter it thru the passenger side. If you didn't have a fob then unlock it from the passengers and put your keys on the ground before you lean in.. because if a cop decided to hang out and catch kids then you'd be in the clear. Law is a law, man. Just follow it when it comes to serious shit.
@@fredthechihuahuajust give em the chair already. How dare they. Put a needle in their arm
@@fredthechihuahua So she got a record for drunk driving that's a complete lie and a scam. The arrest was actually for sitting in a seat. And, having the IQ of a goldfish, you support this.
@@fredthechihuahuadue to how that statute is worded, im pretty sure if they were in the backseat it's still "easily accessible" and could still get the DUI charge. This actually only shows people it's a better bet to drive home drunk than to wait it out. The cops should have used this as a teaching moment, they're underage they don't know that when they feel "sober" they aren't actually. Teach them that, teach them to not be behind the wheel (stupid law imo but there's nothing we can really do about that) and teach how to make better decisions. They wanted to get her with a DUI charge from the get go seeing how she eagerly asked the other officer if she still could charge her. Absolutely disgusting. No care in the world that they're actually doing more harm than good.
And listening to how that law is worded, I have my car keys hung up at my door. I could be on my couch drinking then get in my car and drive within 5 seconds. My car is "easily accessible" but am I gonna just get in it and drive drunk? No. Did she drive? She could have eventually but did not yet. The cops came at the right time but went about this the absolute wrong way. They should be ashamed and im honestly surprised seeing so many people defending them
If it's not running or moving, there is no physical control necessary. This line of prosecution needs to be struck down. She could have arrested her for prostitution, since she possessed the equipment necessary.
The common sense approach would have been to observe that she wasn't driving, thank her for having sense to not drive, and allow her to go home. This interaction didn't 'protect' anyone, and only damaged the person trying to do the right thing. Oh, and the attorneys and courts will make money.
Prostitution is legal in the usa so they wouldn't arrests her for that.
@@johnjames7289 It's not. There are some specific counties in Nevada where it is legal, but that's it. The rest of the time, it's a crime.

As a police officer myself, this infuriates me that these officers didn’t explore other avenues prior to resorting to arrest, although they may have had no other choice since I know some law enforcement agencies don’t give their officers very much discretion as to whether they arrest, cite, or educate and release.
My department is good enough to allow us significant discretion in this manner, and I always try to avoid arresting someone since that will follow them for the rest of their lives. If I place someone under arrest then you can guarantee that either the victim pressed charges which forces me to make an arrest, or the suspect became aggressive or rude with me, as long as you remain polite, don’t have significant or recent history of offenses, and I have the choice in the matter, I will likely educate you on the law, confiscate any illegal substances or items, then release you with a warning.
The fact that you received a warning will go into the computer system, so if you get caught again for the same offense then you will almost certainly be arrested or cited if it was a minor offense.
For example misdemeanor drug possession with no history of offense, I’m gonna educate you, give you a list of resources, confiscate the drugs and release you with a warning, but felony drug possession and yes you are going to jail. Also my state is the same as Florida, if you have the car keys, are sitting in the drivers seat, and you are drunk, I could arrest you for DUI, but the way I handle it is as long as you found just sitting in the car like this girl was, and again you have no history of offenses, I would educate you that you could be arrested, then ensure that you get home safely, and release with a warning, but if I catch you actually driving or you have a history of DUI, then yes you are gonna go to jail.
"If you just do what you're supposed to you don't have anything to worry about!" 😂
This right here is how you create criminals. Not just because you're inventing reasons to incriminate innocent people, but because, in doing so, you teach innocent people that trying to do the right thing leads to punishment.
THIS!
I've heard cops boast of why they "don't give a sh**."about doing their job. They said they don't get paid enough and laugh about the f-ed up things they've done.
Exactly this! But people who say that will always 100% of the time say if you were arrested, then you clearly did something wrong. Their urge to lick boots is unmatched.
I am so glad that I live somewhere that doesn't do field sobriety tests. Those tests that they did there can be so many reasons to fail them that have nothing to do with having been drinking
My father was on a jury a while back of a kid who was arrested for DUI after parking and falling asleep in his car. They acquitted him because they believed he never intended to drive the vehicle while drunk and made the right decision to pull over.

How do you park a car to sleep, if you did not drive it and if he parked it after drinking that would mean he drove it to the place he parked.

There have been a couple times in my life I have, through poor planning, been in this situation. On one occasion it resulted in a deputy knocking on my window at 3 am to ask if I was ok. After explaining that I did not feel I could drive home safely and opted to (sleep it off), she thanked me for not driving. If just sitting in the drivers seat of a vehicle is considered "control" then you may as well give everyone a speeding ticket because they "could" speed... they "could" also run over a bicycle... they "could" also run over a pedestrian... or run a red light... or... hell just throw them in jail for "thinking" about driving. This is a perfect example of why people don't trust the police.

@@BeardedFire then they arrest you for sleeping on the side of the road. There is no winning
People should pressure their legislators to challenge the broadness of this law. I also don't agree that the mere fact of being drink inside a parked vehicle characterizes DUI, however, this is the law for that place.
Part of the reasons why such laws exist is because of people abusing the trust of cops. Many stories from cops where this is pretty much the exact situation that happened cops decide to just let it go and person later drives drunk and wrecks, killing themselves or someone else. Part of the issue is plenty of people do drink and drive thinking they are below the legal limit but in truth are over it.
@@marcuswanha9723 Except that this law basically says you are guilty before you have actually done anything wrong. It says yes you have a car, yes you have the keys, and yes you are in the car therefore you "could" drive and possibly hurt or kill someone. The same holds true for gun owners. Yes, you have a gun, and yes it is loaded therefore you "could" possibly hurt or kill someone. Yes, you have a bat, yes you use the bat and therefore you "could" possibly hurt or kill someone. Yes, you have a steak knife, and yes you are using a steak knife therefore you "could" possibly hurt or kill someone. Why do we not automatically prosecute people who own guns/bats/steak knives? Sitting in a car trying to keep warm does not equal "driving". Responsible people will take care of themselves and those around them. She knows she is not fit to drive so she has taken responsibility for her actions and is not driving. I am all for prosecuting to the fullest extent of the law those individuals who don't care about others' safety and choose to drive while impaired. The wording of the law needs to be changed. Operation and control of a vehicle hold too broad of a description. It needs to be an actual moving vehicle to be dangerous otherwise parking lots would be dangerous...
Fact that the cop had her do the FST knowing she was still going to arrest her regardless speaks volumes on why there’s such a disconnect between law enforcement & we the people
huh? She had her do the tests to see if she was impaired and she failed. Had she passed the tests she might've asked her to blow or just let her go. She was the one that was drunk behind a wheel of a running car.
There’s supposed to be. That’s by design.
My brother did this before said he woke up in the middle of having a conversation with the police. The cop drove him home for being a wise underage drunk.

NEVER do sobriety tests. You may end up in a jail cell, but they can't use them in court, and they WILL, even if you are stone cold sober.
We have yet to see anyone "pass" a field test
@kendallsmith1458 I have. I was designated driver off post once, stone cold sober, 35 years ago. But wouldn't do that test again.
The unintended consequence is that perhaps those young people just learned that doing something much worse (driving home if she thinks she is "only buzzed") might be a logical option because sleeping it off poses more risk to her.
When I was a kid, my uncle told me that he’d read an article about there were more bad cops in every police force across America. Then they were good cops from my many years in live. I’m beginning to believe that.

Those field sobriety tests are unfair to all the Florida college students who can't count to nine.
The sentencing conditions that were imposed upon this poor woman were “excessive,” “cruel,” “unjust,” and “unfair.” The circumstances of the case did not warrant all of them.
I am going to be a lot harsher. The police deserve a D- for ABSOLUTELY choosing the most extreme action while dealing with a polite and reasonable driver, who was trying to do the right thing. I give the driver a B. Despite the bad initial decision, she seemed to have good intentions and should have been given the benefit of the doubt. Common sense should be applied... but as Voltaire said, "Common sense is not so common."
Wow! Maybe if she injured someone behind the wheel she should also get off with a warning? As long as she’s polite. Right?
The B- is a joke. Honestly, AtA is way too generous with cops far too often. I'll still watch the occasional video but I unsubscribed a long time ago.
Fun fact if youre drunk and sitting in your car dont sit in the drivers seat and dont have your keys near you, put them in the trunk. If your keys are in the ignition you can get a dui, if you have your keys in your pocket you can get a dui.
This reminds me of a friend of mine who was arrested for an "open container" violation, while he was cutting his front lawn.
He was cutting his grass on a riding lawnmower, and drinking a beer. The cop waited until he cut close enough to the road for it to be in the "right of way", then executed a traffic stop.
If cops keep "executing traffic stops" like this, one day, somebody they pull over is gonna respond by "executing a traffic cop."
The real problem is the wording of the law. Years ago in Montana I heard the story of a man who got a DUI because the officer found him sleeping in the back seat, inside a sleeping bag, with the keys in his possession. He argued that he could not reach the steering wheel or pedals, the judge ruled that possession of the keys was sufficient.
this is what people just fail to understand. crooken cops and a broken system will always stretch things to screw people over. you cant be immune just by being a "law-abiding citizen." it will find a way to get you.
US law: Sleep outside fuckers
Wording is purposefully vague to lend more power to authorities. In such a case it would have been better to leave the keys outside the cabin of the car. Inside the fuel flap or on top of a tire out of immediate view of the public.
The real problem is that while the law is written to be broad, a cops real job is to improve the community. Stopping people from drinking and driving helps the community, but not arresting people sleeping in the back of their cars.
I mean, if you really want you can say that being in control of a vehicle is to stand within a few meters from it🤣

Someone is over the limit and sits in their car hoping to regain sobriety before driving. They go to sleep and, an hour or two later, wake up, and, in a confused state, forget why they are sleeping in the car, and drive home still over the limit and perhaps being involved in a serious accident. That is why this law exists. Also, drivers over the limit will try to claim they intended to sleep. Similar laws have been enacted in many states and countries.
I think the worse thing here is that the cop immediately sounded very caring and out for her best interest but was looking for a reason to arrest her when she made a responsible decision to not drive. I personally know other officers who would just let her off with a warning, maybe even give her a ride back home or to her dorm because she made all good decisions except one: to sit in the driver’s seat instead, and she shouldn’t be going to jail for sitting in the wrong seat.

But in actuality its just a series of humiliating actions they make her go through just so they can compile a few extra data points that they'll interpret in the worst faith possible in their report so that the prosecutor has extra evidence against her to ensure a conviction.
Why would a jury vote guilty on any dui/owi charges if it's the main charge?
