AN OFF-DUTY NYPD cop was arrested for drunk driving on Long Island after she flipped her SUV — with her 8-year-old son in the back.

Raquel Warburton, 40, a detective assigned to the Missing Persons Squad, drove over a sand dune and flipped the car on its side at Robert Moses State Park around 9:30 Friday night, police sources said.

Warburton lost control of the car at a U-turn on the Robert Moses Causeway.

She suffered a split lip, while her son was not injured, the sources said.

A dog named Remy that was in the car ran off into the Great South Bay and has not been seen since, News 12 reported.

Warburton, an 11-year NYPD vet, was charged with DWI and suspended without pay.
