City Council Candiate Arrested for Drunk Driving

Taking this DUI Issue Could Make Her More Famous

On October 17 at 11:30 PM, and SPD DUI officer spotted a car speeding and drifting side to side of the lane. It was stopped, its driver was Seattle City Council candidate Venus Velazquez.

The officer noticed a strong mint smell on her breath, which made him suspect she was trying to cover up the smell of alcohol. He gave her a field sobriety test, then arrested her and took her to the West Precinct.

She refused to take a breath test and consequently charged on the suspicion of driving under the influence according to the Seattle Police Department.

According to velazquez , she attended a candidate forum in Ballard on Wednesday, then went to dinner, where she said she had two drinks with her meal.

“I stayed long enough until I believed I was not impaired,” she said. “I do not believe I was impaired or I would have not driven home.”

She was released after 12:40 AM and a police officer drover her home. A police department statement said “Ms. Velazquez was treated in the same way as any other person under similar circumstances. Her license could be suspended for a year after a hearing with the state Department of Licensing.
The case has been sent to the City Attorney. A court appearance has been scheduled for Saturday.

Velazquez said: “What I hope will happen is that voters will see this for what it is. It’s a bad judgment call. It doesn’t negate what I’ve been running on for nine months.”


It is a irony that people even in those high offices, positions can be belied and become gullible or beguiled into drinking those alcohol drinks. Thinking it can be used for their moderate safe drinking. That much amount would not and SHOULD NOT make them drunk or impaired for driving! But they get it totally wrong!

What these people basically don’t know is that; the drunk driving happens essentially due to the alcohol authorities licensing of those high-alcohol content drinks (due to their alcohol research misconduct) for the public consumption under the name of Standard Alcohol Drinks, which causes almost all those drunk driving accidents.

Here I call upon, Venus Velazquez Seattle City Council Candidate to take up this issue. It can benefit the people more and could make her more famous then becoming a city canceller.

I have explained this matter in so many of my blog post in this month and in the last month citing many of the DUI news reports. However to know more deeply on this subject matter read the following most important papers in my blog WebPages:
