UPLAND, Calif. - A woman who authorities said was high on drugs was arrested and booked after driving her vehicle in the wrong direction at a car wash in the Inland Empire.

What we know:

Officials with the Upland Police Department posted a 30-second clip of the incident, showing a white van going the wrong way through a car wash. 

The video later shows the suspect, whose face was blurred, appearing to act erratically as she communicated with officers. 

What they're saying:

"On Sunday morning, a woman high on drugs decided it was time for a free car wash. She proceeded to drive through the car wash in the wrong direction, causing thousands in damage to the machinery," Upland PD explained in a Facebook post. 

"The woman then started walking away from the scene, but was stopped and evaluated. She was ultimately booked for DUI, hit and run, and her vehicle towed."
