Allegedly causing several accidents near the Coralville Dam has led to drunk driving charges against an Iowa City woman.

Johnson County Sheriff’s deputies were called to Eden Drive, just off Prairie du Chien Road, just before noon Saturday for a vehicle that had caused multiple accidents. Witnesses reported the driver was “very intoxicated”.

Arriving deputies found 56-year-old Robynn Shrader allegedly operating a 2014 Audi A4. Investigators say she appeared to not know where she was, despite only being a few blocks from her Anita Circle residence. Shrader allegedly showed signs of intoxication, and her husband needed to assist her in walking to the squad car. A vodka bottle was found on the passenger seat of Shrader’s vehicle.

Shrader refused all field sobriety and breath testing. She was arrested and charged with Operating While Intoxicated.
