Bodycam footage shows close call
Bodycam video released by the Toledo Post shows troopers conducting standardized field sobriety tests on a driver when a speeding vehicle mounts the curb, knocks over a sign, and continues along a footpath. The troopers and the driver shout and run out of the way. Both drivers were arrested for operating a vehicle while impaired. No injuries were reported, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol.
