KAYSVILLE, Utah — New video shared by the Kaysville Police Department shows an officer using their vehicle to stop a wrong-way driver on Interstate 15.

The incident happened in the early morning hours of Friday, April 15 when the Utah Highway Patrol was notified of a driver heading the wrong way out of the Salt Lake area.

While a trooper originally missed, new video shows the Kaysville police officer line up the car as it comes from the other direction, and then hitting nearly head-on.

Neither the trooper or the person in the car was injured, but the 36-year-old driver was taken into custody on suspicion of DUI.
