Deputies say they watched as a driver swerved in his lane several times and when they tried to pull him over, he just kept driving.

Dash camera video from the chase shows the driver, later identified as 36-year-old Hector Robledo, driving on the wrong side of the road.

Eventually, deputies performed a PIT maneuver on the car and stopped it.

Robledo eventually got out of the car. But when he did, he appears in the video to slowly walk away from the crash.
