ABOVE VIDEO (Today.com): Whitney Beall, 23, was arrested by police in Lakeland, Florida, on Oct. 9 after she used the Periscope app to live stream video of herself on social media going to bars and then getting behind the wheel to drive home. While broadcasting herself, she said, “I’m driving home drunk, let’s see if I get a DUI. I don’t think I will.”
