The Deputy observed the vehicle cross over the double yellow centerline and also observed both tag lights on the license plate were inoperative. The Deputy initiated a traffic stop as the suspect vehicle made a left turn into Ocean Down’s Casino.
The Deputy made contact with the driver, identified using his Delaware Driver’s License as Mark Joseph Williamson, age30, of Dagsboro, DE. The Deputy detected a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from Williamson’s person, slurred speech, and observed Williamson struggle to find the registration card for the vehicle.
The Deputy conducted a series of field sobriety tests on Williamson. Williamson failed all tests and was placed under arrest for Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol. Williamson refused to submit to a breath test and was released on four citations pending trial in Maryland District Court.

I believe that happens to everyone even sober people. You are a nervous wreck after getting lit up and pulled over. If it doesn't scare the crap out of you then you are not human.
As a former law enforcement officer who left a career because of the dishonesty I saw in all areas of the justice system I can assure you coming up with probable cause for an arrest, a car stop or further testing to determine if a driver is intoxicated takes about a 7th grade education!
Wow will we get a press release for every DWI/DUI. What made this one special?
lol 2:48, clearly you were never a police officer.
He probably got fired. 6:57
