A DUI officer on patrol had attempted to stop the teen driver moments prior after noticing the teen was driving with high beams on and didn’t dim them for oncoming traffic, News Channel 5 reported. When that officer turned his siren on, the teen driver took off. After running the car’s plates, the DUI officer found the car was not reported stolen and did not pursue.
