23-year-old Alexandra Pirtle was jailed Friday Morning after crashing on I-40. During the investigation, officers observed her wobbling while standing, smelling strongly of alcohol, and slurring her speech while she explained that she had lost control of her vehicle after swerving to avoid a car that had cut her off. Officers asked Pirtle if she had anything to drink, to which she advised she had two drinks before leaving work. She was asked to consent to sobriety tests but refused and was taken into custody.
Alexandra Taylor Pirtle was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on September 22nd, charged with driving under the influence and implied consent violation. A judicial commissioner set her bond at $2,500.
