ON 050109 AT APPROXIMATELY 2215 HOURS, WHILE PATROLLING EAST GULF TO LAKE HIGHWAY I OBSERVED A VEHICLE TRAVELING WEST WHILE I WAS TRAVELING EAST, AND TO BE OPERATING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. AT THAT TIME I ESTIMATED THE VEHICLE'S SPEED AT 85 MILES PER HOUR. AT THAT TIME I ACTIVATED MY FRONT RADAR ANTENNA WHERE I RECEIVED A CLEAR AUDIO DOPPLER TONE AND A TARGET SPEED OF 86 MILES PER HOUR. AT THAT TIME I PULLED INTO THE MEDIAN, AND THE VEHICLE PASSED ME, WHERE I OBSERVED THE VEHICLE TO BE A GOLD IN COLOR FOUR DOOR SEDAN. I CONDUCTED A U-TURN AND STARTED TRAVELING WEST ON EAST GULF TO LAKE HIGHWAY IN AN ATTEMPT TO CATCH UP TO THE VEHICLE. UPON CATCHING UP TO THE VEHICLE, I NOTIFIED CITRUS COUNTY DISPATCH THAT I WAS GOING TO BE CONDUCTING A TRAFFIC STOP ON THE VEHICLE BEARING FLORIDA TAG 700LRI, NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF EDEN GARDENS AND EAST GULF TO LAKE HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS A GOLD IN COLOR CHRYSLER FOUR DOOR SEDAN. I ACTIVATED MY OVERHEAD EMERGENCY LIGHTS WHERE THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE CAME TO A STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. I THEN EXITED MY PATROL VEHICLE AND MADE CONTACT WITH THE DEFENDANT. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT FOR HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE, REGISTRATION AND PROOF OF INSURANCE. I ALSO ADVISED THE DEFENDANT HE WAS BEING PULLED OVER FOR DRIVING 86 MILES PER HOUR IN A 60 MILE PER HOUR SPEED ZONE. AT THAT TIME I OBSERVED THE DEFENDANT TO BE FUMBLING AROUND IN HIS VEHICLE, ATTEMPTING TO LOCATE HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE. I ALSO DETECTED THE SLIGHT ODOR OF AN ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE EMITTING FROM HIS PERSON. IT TOOK THE DEFENDANT APPROXIMATELY EIGHT MINUTES TO RETRIEVE HIS DRIVER'S LICENSE, WHICH WAS LOCATED IN A SMALL BLACK BILLFOLD LYING NEAR THE CENTER CONSOLE NEAR THE FLOORBOARD. I THEN RETURNED TO MY PATROL VEHICLE WHERE I FILLED OUT UNIFORM TRAFFIC CITATION 8562-RSG FOR UNLAWFUL SPEED OF 86 MILES PER HOUR IN A 60 MILE PER HOUR ZONE. UPON RETURNING TO THE DEFENDANT'S VEHICLE I ASKED HIM TO STEP OUT OF HIS VEHICLE AND PROCEED TO THE FRONT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE HAD ANYTHING TO DRINK TONIGHT AND THE DEFENDANT REPLIED HE HAD BEEN DRINKING NYQUIL TODAY BECAUSE HE HAD A COLD. AT THAT TIME I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE HAD ANY MEDICAL PROBLEMS WHICH WOULD NOT ALLOW HIM TO CONDUCT ROADSIDE FIELD SOBRIETY TASKS. THE DEFENDANT STATED HE WAS NOT GOING TO COMPLETE ANY ROADSIDE SOBRIETY TASKS UNLESS HIS ATTORNEY WAS PRESENT. I ASKED THE DEFENDANT IF HE WAS REFUSING TO DO THE TASKS, AND HE STATED, "YES", AND ALSO ADVISED IF I WANTED TO, I COULD GO AHEAD AND PLACE HIM UNDER ARREST. AT THAT TIME I ASKED THE DEFENDANT TO TURN AROUND AND PUT HIS HANDS BEHIND HIS BACK. THE DEFENDANT WAS SECURED IN HANDCUFFS (DOUBLE LOCKED) BEHIND HIS BACK. I ADVISED THE DEFENDANT HE WAS BEING PLACED UNDER ARREST FOR ONE COUNT OF DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE. THE DEFENDANT WAS SECURED IN THE REAR SEAT OF MY PATROL VEHICLE. DEPUTY WARD ARRIVED ON SCENE AS A BACKUP OFFICER AND AT THAT TIME DEPUTY WARD FILLED OUT A TOW SHEET. THE DEFENDANT WAS THEN TRANSPORTED TO THE CITRUS COUNTY DETENTION FACILITY.
