78-year-old Evelyn Frye is charged with DUI after a traffic stop during which she admitted to drinking wine, and gave bizarre statements, such as it wasn't hot enough to drive down West End with her high beams on.
On February 7th, Officer McDaniel witnessed a Nissan Juke traveling with a headlight out at 1:03 a.m. The officer then conducted a traffic stop and the vehicle turned into a parking lot on West End Avenue. Once contact was made the driver was identified as Evelyn Frye and Officer McDaniel told her she had a headlight out. Evelyn then switched the high beams on and asked the officer to check again. Officer McDaniel then explained to her that she could not travel down West End Avenue with her high beams on while other cars were traveling as well.

Her response was, "I don't think it's hot enough for that." While Officer McDaniel was speaking with her he noticed that she had bloodshot, watery eyes and smelled slightly of alcohol. Evelyn did admit to drinking 4 ounces of wine prior to driving. The officer then asked her to perform a standard field sobriety test which she performed poorly. She was taken into custody and read Tennessee's Implied Consent Law. Evelyn consented to a breath test but was physically unable to give a sufficient sample after 3 attempts.
