| A 47-year-old Stafford man earned yet another DUI charge after being located passed out behind the wheel over the weekend.
On September 14th, at approximately 6:51 a.m., Deputy E.L. Jones responded to the area of Courthouse Road and the I-95 overpass for an unconscious driver. At the diverging diamond interchange, it was advised a Chevrolet was sitting unmoved through multiple green lights. The vehicle still had not moved by the time Deputy Jones arrived.
The vehicle was in drive with nothing stopping it from rolling other than the driver’s foot on the brake. The driver was fully reclined in his seat while asleep. An open container was also observed in plain view. In a safe manner, the vehicle was turned off and the driver was woken up. The driver was identified as Arthur Bailey. Bailey had signs of intoxication and a revoked license due to a prior DUI. It was also discovered Bailey had three prior DUI convictions, two of which were within the last ten years.
Bailey was charged with driving under the influence third offense within ten years, drinking while driving, driving while revoked, and stopping on a highway. He was held at Rappahannock Regional Jail without bond. |
