A police officer in Southern California captured a funny New Year’s Eve encounter with a drunk driving suspect on his bodycam, and the clip has gone viral

Officer Bridgewaters of the Murrieta Police Department noticed a vehicle swerving and pulled the driver over to investigate a possible DUI. The officer approached the driver and asked where he was coming from. The driver responded that he was out for New Year’s Eve and just dropped off a friend because he is the designated driver. Or, at least that’s what he meant to say. What actually came out of his mouth was, “I’m the DUI tonight.”

Officer Bridgewaters asked, “do you mean to say the DD?” to which the driver was speechless. The officer conducted a field sobriety test, which he failed, and was arrested for DUI.
