Deputy Juan Martin-Reyes followed the Volkswagen northbound from
the 23 mile marker to the 30 mile marker of the highway just before 11 p.m. He
observed the vehicle swerving, increasing and decreasing speeds and braking
suddenly. He turned on his lights and siren and the car stopped suddenly in the
lane of traffic. Through the back window he could see the driver and passenger
quickly switch seats.
Deputy Spencer Curry arrived as back up. The deputies had both
18 year old Steffany Miranda and 24 year old Vanessa Miranda perform field
sobriety exercises. Both girls had trouble performing the exercises and were,
according to the deputies, visibly impaired and smelled of alcohol.
Because both girls were, at some point, in control of the
vehicle behind the steering wheel with the keys in the ignition, they were both
charged with driving under the influence of alcohol.
