31-year-old Tyler Johnson was caught driving under the influence after being involved in a car accident at the BNA ride-share lot on Terminal Drive on August 22nd. Police officers were called to the scene after reports of a possible drunk driving incident. Upon arrival, they found Johnson using his vehicle for support outside. As the officers approached, Johnson began removing bags from his car. Officers determined that this demonstrated that Johnson had control of the vehicle. The car appeared to have been involved in a recent accident at an unknown location. The officers also noted damage to the front passenger wheel, resulting in a flat tire. It seemed that Johnson had been involved in an accident and had left the scene. Upon further investigation, officers ran the vehicle tags and learned it was rented from Sixt Rental Company. Officers then noticed a faint smell of alcohol as they approached Johnson. Officers also saw a partially consumed Voodoo Ranger alcoholic beverage inside the vehicle. Johnson, who was sitting outside the car, was observed to have urinated on himself, had bloodshot eyes, and slurred speech. Security footage confirmed that Johnson had driven from the bus area to the ride-share lot. Due to his difficulty standing, Johnson needed the officers’ assistance. During a conversation with Johnson, the officers detected the smell of alcohol on his breath. Johnson agreed to perform sobriety tests but performed poorly on all of them. Based on his test performances and overall behavior, Johnson was arrested for driving under the influence and having an open container of alcohol on August 23rd.
