(USA TODAY) - Hot on the Web, sadly, is dash cam video released by police of country singer Randy Travis being arrested in Sanger, Texas.

In the video, police approach the singer's car, parked in front of a church, and he admits he's drunk, but says, "But I am not driving, as you can see."

When police tell him to get out and that they're arresting him for public intoxication, the singer, 52, says, "You're kidding me?"

Travis was still in disbelief while riding in the back of the police car, on his way to the Denton County jail. "Will anyone drive me back to my vehicle?"

In a statement, Travis said he was sorry for "what resulted following an evening of celebrating the Super Bowl...I'm committed to being responsible and accountable."
