Moore was positioned in the roadway hindering the flow of traffic. Deputies could smell a strong odor of an alcoholic beverage upon her breath and person.

The operation will deploy mass patrols on state and/or county roadways known to have higher instances of impaired-driving arrests and alcohol-related crashes.
