On her way past the courthouse 41-year-old Regina Vee of Gallup managed to capture the attention of McKinley County Undersheriff James Maiorano and Sergeant Tammy Houghtaling Nov. 16.

Vee was driving the wrong way on Third Street which only allows traffic to travel in one direction.

Maiorano and Houghtaling turned on lights and sirens, but the driver fled for a few blocks before stopping. She refused to take the Standard Field Sobriety Tests or the breath test. Vee was arrested and charged with her second DWI, open containers, going the wrong way, careless driving, and no insurance.
