Carson City deputies make DUI, warrant related arrests
A 25-year-old woman was arrested early Thursday morning in the area of Highway 50 and Fairview Drive for suspicion of DUI first and failure to maintain lane, a Carson City sheriff's deputy said.
The Dayton woman was arrested after deputies observed a vehicle traveling east on Highway 50 at Airport Road, traveling at 60 mph in a 45 mph zone.
Deputies followed the vehicle and watched as the car drove completely on the right shoulder of the roadway in the emergency lane, still at 60 mph. Deputies feared the vehicle was going to drive into a ditch and initiated a traffic stop.
Deputies made contact with the woman and reported they could smell alcohol coming from her breath and person, and that she displayed red, watery eyes and spoke with a slurred speech pattern, the arrest report states.
She had to be asked several times for her documents, deputies stated, and she provided deputies with the incorrect documents on several occasions. She told deputies she had consumed two beers during the evening.
She provided a preliminary breath test that resulted in a .223. At the Carson City Jail, she submitted to an evidentiary test, resulting in a BAC of .176.
She was booked without further incident. Bail: $1,224.
