A responding officer intercepted the vehicle in question on Route 8 and initiated a traffic stop. As the vehicle was turning into a parking lot, the officer observed the driver to nearly strike a light pole. Upon making contact with the operator, the officer could immediately detect the odor of an alcoholic beverage emanating from the vehicle. The operator was observed to have glassy eyes and his speech was slurred. The officer also observed red paint transfer on the front of the vehicle that appeared to be consistent with the red pole in the parking lot that had been struck.
