At 2 a.m., Lynette and Jason left a party, where they both had several beers. Lynette decided she was less intoxicated than Jason, so she took the keys and began driving home. Lynette was driving on the interstate without realizing that her headlights were off. A state trooper observed Lynette's car without its lights on and signaled her to pull over. Lynette pulled the car successfully, but the effect of the alcohol kicked in, and she started laughing uncontrollably. The officer asked both Lynette and Jason to exit the car. Lynette, who continued to laugh, failed a field sobriety test, and the officer arrested Lynette for driving under the influence. The officer then searched the car, even though Jason did not consent to a search, and found empty beer bottles under Jason's
