Woman Charged With DUI After Low-Speed Police Chase

A Forsyth County woman was arrested and charged with DUI Saturday afternoon after leading police on a low-seed chase along Ga. 400 in Alpharetta and Roswell.

Officers with the Alpharetta 9-1-1 center received a call from a concerned resident about a possible DUI driver "that was swerving all over the road on Old Milton Parkway" near Avalon in Alpharetta, said Department of Public Safety spokesperson Officer Howard Miller.

Miller said the suspected vehicle, a white four-door Honda Accord, was observed by an officer on Ga. 400 southbound between Old Milton Parkway and Haynes Bridge Road. The officer saw the car swerve out of her lane, and he tried to make a traffic stop on the Accord. However, the driver, identified as 50-year-old Kimberly Favors of Cumming, had other plans, as she continued to travel southbound at a "slow speed,"

Favors was transported to WellStar North Fulton Hospital for evaluation before she was taken to the Alpharetta Jail. She was charged with DUI/alcohol/less safe, failure to maintain lane and failure to yield to an emergency vehicle.
