Probably the reason they pulled him over in the first place...the police sometimes have ‘saturation patrols’ where they pull people over for any infraction...just to see what they might find.
These patrols are usually late at night and where the drunks drive.
I was pulled over for a burnt out license plate light during one of these...the car has two plate lights, and its actually a challenge to even see that one is burned out, but they did. (I wasn’t drinking and was sent on my way).
I’m not sure about saturation patrol, but he was pulled over on a street going into one of the priciest subdivisions (Village of Clay Terrace) in the priciest suburb (Carmel) of town.

It’s Carmel (by-the-Interstate, not the one by-the-sea).
If you ever lived in the area, you’d understand that no further explanation is needed.
