A 51-year-old Carson City woman was arrested Friday afternoon in the area of Silver Sage and Sonoma for DUI drugs, failure to maintain lane, and failure to use due care, which resulted in a three car collision.
The woman was arrested after deputies responded to a traffic accident in which the driver who caused the accident appeared to be under the influence, according to the report.
The woman struck two stopped vehicles at the intersection of Silver Sage and Sonoma Street. According to the report, she failed to stop for stopped traffic and her vehicle was in the through travel lane at the point of collision.
Deputies questioned the woman using questions from the Carson City Under the Influence form. When deputies asked the woman if she knew what time it was, she attempted to answer the question by looking at the deputy’s watch. When they asked her if she knew where she was, she attempted to look at the street signs to answer the question, and told deputies she was a few blocks from her home.
Deputies noted she had a visible shake to her body, and slurred speech. She told deputies she had a bad knee and had taken Xanax earlier in the day, and had just recently taken a Methadone pill.
She was taken into custody for driving under the influence of drugs.
