Wrong Way Driver Arrested in Sterling: Police

STERLING, VA — The following is not advisable. In fact, it's a recipe for disaster.

Fortunately, the good folks manning the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office prevented such an end.

To wit: an officer on routine patrol on Route 7 saw quite the astonishing thing — a vehicle was headed west on the highway. One problem. The vehicle was in the eastbound lane.

Tommy L. Locklear, 39, of North Carolina, was charged with DUI, driving with an open container, driving without an operator's license and reckless driving.
