Woman Arrested for DUI Hours before her Wedding

This week Saturday, a 31-year-old woman from Bellevue was arrested for suspicion of driving under the influence. Ironically, her arrest occurred just hours before she was supposed to walk down the aisle said the Washington State patrol.

Police stopped the woman just after 6 AM when a deputy spotted her weaving in and out of her lane and speeding at more than 90 mph on northbound Interstate 405 near Northeast Eighth Street.  When pulled over, the woman told the deputy that she was driving home from her bachelorette party and was getting married that afternoon.

She admitted that she had been arrested for driving under the influence once before and was familiar with the DUI traffic stop routine.  Police took her blood alcohol level which was measured in at .146, twice the legal limit in the state of Washington.

The officer presiding over the case said the woman will face charges in King County District Court.
