The officer conducted a traffic stop and observed Armitstead with red, watery eyes. He could smell alcohol coming from her vehicle. She took extensive time looking for her license and was uncooperative when asked to step out of her vehicle. Armitstead admitted to drinking two glasses of wine two hours before driving. She agreed to sobriety tests, on which she began performing poorly, and then refused to continue.
