Speed-Camera Van Driver Busted for Arizona DUI

18 09.08

Driver was driving drunk in Tempe on way to set up camera.

Roderick M. Ruffin, 53, was on his way to set up a camera to catch speeders when he was stopped for driving under the influence in Tempe. Motorists observed Ruffin, in a Redflex photo enforcement van, strike the curb twice and nearly hit the vehicle in front of him.

A police officer stopped the van after observing it weaving. Ruffin reportedly failed a field sobriety test and registered a blood alcohol content of .15%, nearly twice the legal limit for intoxication in Arizona. Under Arizona DUI laws, such an elevated BAC is considered an extreme DUI.

A spokesperson with Redflex said that Ruffin, who had been with the company for one year, has been let go.
