Drunk Florida Woman Caught Speeding 120 MPH, Uses Nails To Claw at Trooper

A woman suspected of speeding at 120 mph while under the influence of alcohol reportedly turned "violent" as a Florida Highway Patrol officer attempted to arrest her, digging her nails into the officer's hands, according to law enforcement.

The officer spotted Brittany Bianchi's Mercedes dart past him on a bridge in St. Petersburg at about 8:30 p.m. Saturday night. Bianchi was reportedly driving about 65 mph over the posted speed limit.

After pulling Bianchi over, the officer said he could smell alcohol on the 31-year-old's breath and noted that she was slurring her words. But she refused to take a sobriety test or give a breath sample, the Tampa Bay Times reported.

"I have zero reason to perform any sobriety anything," Bianchi replied, according to dash cam footage obtained by Fox 35.

"Like, I have a 7-year-old at home. Like, I'm not doing anything wrong but speeding, and you're just assuming everything, for what?" she said.

As the officer tried to arrest Bianchi, she reportedly tried digging her nails into him, causing bleeding.

She also attempted to open the divider between the front and back seats, but her attempts were unsuccessful because she was already wearing handcuffs.

Bianchi had already been arrested twice for DUIs over the past 10 years — once in 2013 and once in 2016.

Bianchi was eventually moved to a different trooper's vehicle and brought to the Pinellas County Jail. She has since been released on a $12,800 bond.

She faces charges of drunk driving, driving with a suspended license, resisting arrest with violence, and battery on a law enforcement officer, among other charges.
