The following pre-exit observations an officer is trained to detect.

SIGHT

Trained DUI officers are actively observing drivers of motor vehicles throughout the DUI process. NHTSA advises that there are a number of potential clues that officers are looking for during the initial contact and subsequent interview with the driver that would be perceived as evidence of alcohol and/or drug impairment. According to NHTSA these observable clues may include:

. bloodshot eyes;

. soiled clothing;

. fumbling fingers;

. alcohol containers;

. drugs or drug paraphernalia;

. bruises, bumps or scratches;

. unusual actions.
