34-year-old Kayla Richardson was seen in a black GMC Yukon failing to maintain her lane on Dickerson Pike on July 12th. Officers observed this and conducted a traffic stop, and Richardson was identified as the driver. When officers approached her, they noticed multiple signs of intoxication. Officers requested Richardson to perform sobriety tests. Richardson consented to the sobriety tests and showed numerous signs of impairment. After the tests, Richardson admitted to consuming an orange creamsicle drink that contained alcohol and two vodka sodas at a Nashville Sounds game. During a subsequent search of Richardson’s vehicle, officers found 13.5 grams of marijuana inside a purse and a pink Stanley cup containing liquor. Richardson was read implied consent, and she refused, so officers proceeded to take her into custody for driving under the influence, implied consent violation, and possession or casual exchange on July 13th.
