Sophia Ross, 22, was pulled over by the Sarasota Police Department in November and has been charged with a DUI. A Hooters waitress with an alleged .318 blood alcohol level - more than four times the legal driving limit - was caught attempting to flirt her way out of a traffic stop on bodycam footage.

Sophia Ross, 22, who has pleaded not guilty, was pulled over by the Sarasota Police Department in mid-November and has been charged with a DUI, police confirmed. However, the body camera footage from the arrest has recently gone viral. Another driver called the police after he spotted Ross stopping at green lights and hitting several curbs in the city of Sarasota, Florida, according to an affidavit seen by The Independent.

When officers found Ross, she had stopped the car and was asleep at the wheel in the stopped vehicle, the affidavit said. “Do you want to try this first exercise for me?” the officer asked. “I will do anything for you, daddy,” Ross replied in a seductive tone. “God damn. You in that suit. I would do f*****g anything for you.”.

The officer asked Ross multiple times to complete the sobriety test, explaining that he needed to seek her consent. “We’re gonna make out here,” Ross replied at one point. “No we’re not,” the officer bluntly responded. The officer kept his composure and was occasionally heard laughing.
