Which of the following is a describable clue an officer might see during the phase two interview?

During the phase two interview, officers are trained to observe various clues that may indicate a person's level of impairment due to alcohol or drugs. Bloodshot eyes serve as a describable clue because they can be a physical indicator of intoxication, often resulting from alcohol consumption. The appearance of bloodshot eyes is easily observable and can suggest that the individual has been consuming substances that affect their body, particularly alcohol, which commonly causes this symptom.

While unusual statements and admissions of drinking can also be pertinent during interactions, they are not as straightforwardly observable as the state of an individual's eyes. Alcoholic beverages in the vicinity may indicate a potential drinking situation but do not provide direct insight into the individual's current condition. In contrast, bloodshot eyes are a clear, immediate sign that officers are trained to look for when assessing a person's sobriety.
