Police pulled him over near South Fulton Drive, where he stopped for "two seconds" and then continued to merge back into traffic. Approximately 50 feet later, he stopped in the shoulder. When police asked him to perform field sobriety tests, "he mocked and performed the tests in his own matter" without following directions.
