The State Patrol report says that Lane was stopped about 2 a.m. Sunday on Interstate 90 on Mercer Island. He was driving his 2006 Dodge Charger with its hazard lights on and was going 80 mph in a 60-mph zone, the report says. He also made several lane changes.
Lane later told a trooper that he had the hazard lights on because his home alarm system had been triggered and that he was trying to get home.
Trooper Matthew Mason wrote that "there was a strong odor of burnt marijuana" inside Lane's car. "Lane's speech was slurred and slow, and his eyes were bloodshot and watery."
Lane told the trooper that he had had nothing to drink but had smoked marijuana three hours earlier.
A breath tests showed a blood-alcohol limit of .039, below the legal limit of .08.
Lane latter said he didn't want people "thinking he was drunk," the report says.
Mason said Lane then said, "This time I was more high than anything."
Among the three field sobriety tests, Lane was asked to lift one leg, then count.
"While Lane counted out loud, I noticed that he skipped from 11 to 13, then back to 12, the forward to 14," Mason wrote in his report. "Around the time he had counted to 20, Lane began to lose his balance and leaned heavily to his right, eventually placing his foot down and stumbling while regaining his balance."
Mason said he was unaware that Lane was a professional football player and that the Seahawk made only oblique references to sports. At one point, he told the trooper that he had broken his arm in the Super Bowl, the report says.
The trooper also responded in his report to comments Lane made on twitter. "A fail DUI is 0.08 right? I blew 0.03 why was still arrest!!! I'll Leave it at that," he said a tweet that was later deleted.
But Mason said he explained to Lane several times that he was arrested because of his driving, his performance on the sobriety test and his admission to smoking marijuana "lead me to believe that he was impaired by a combination of alcohol and marijuana."
After being arrested, Lane was taken to Overlake Hospital for blood draws.

Amazing how they can force you to do that when no accident is involved.
That test will be the death of his Hawk days.

Yep. Just like being arrested for something doesn't mean that you are guilty.
I'm not saying he's not guilty. I don't know if he's guilty or not. I'm just saying that people are arrested all the time who are not guilty of whatever it is they were arrested for.
Wouldn’t shock me if he refused a breath test, didn’t do well on a sobriety test or his car smelled like weed if his .03 BAC is accurate. Around 6 weeks ago I went out to dinner with a friend. He had 3 beers over 2 hours at dinner. He ran a yellow/red light while dropping me back off. Cop asked if he would take a field sobriety test, buddy said sure. He screwed up the alphabet funny enough. Cop took a breath test and he was .035 and was arrested. Since I hadn’t been drinking at all the officers asked if I would drive his car to the station as they were going to release him within minutes. They charged him with DWI but the courts dropped the charges altogether a few weeks later. Sometimes it’s not as bad as it seems. Probably won’t help his off-season regardless.

How can he charged with a DUI at 0.35?!
DUI (Driving Under the Influence)
What is DUI?
Driving under the influence (DUI) refers to operating a vehicle while affected by alcohol, drugs, or both. This applies to both legal and illegal drugs, including prescription medication and over-the-counter drugs.

Dude don’t bring Russell Wilson into this. Dude would never drink and drive. He’s so well behaved he’s still a virgin despite marrying a hottie.Shanegotyou11":1mopjyot said:Y'all sound like a bunch of jerks. Its cuz you dont like him. Flat out is the reason why. If it was Russ, it wouldn't of had this knee jerk reaction that you guys are having.
If he did blow, its totally immature and bad. I flat out agree on that. He could of killed someone.
On a side note the people in here calling him a "loser" or whatever else you guys are saying probably have had a DUI or had a little over the limit in your life.
