Columbus v. Dixon

Citations

  • 2021 Ohio 4062

Syllabus

Trial court did not err when it found appellant guilty of a violation of Columbus City Code 2133.03(A) because there was sufficient testimony in the record to establish beyond a reasonable doubt that appellant operated his vehicle at a greater speed than would have permitted him to bring it to a stop within an assured clear distance ahead. Trial court did not err when it determined that the weight of the evidence showed appellant's vehicle struck another vehicle that was ahead of him in his path of travel, was stationary or moving in the same direction as appellant's vehicle at the time of the collision, was reasonably discernible to appellant, and did not suddenly appear in appellant's path. Judgment affirmed.
