How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • position of car on island in middle of intersection resting on top of toppled traffic control signal sufficient to corroborate defendant's confession to operation of vehicle
  • manner in which vehicle was parked, combined with odor of alcohol, defendant's admission to being drunk, and defendant's failure on multiple field sobriety tests sufficient to prove OUI
  • \Such an inference is also supported by the failure of the bystanders at the scene to dispute the defendant's identity as the operator when the officer obviously was treating him as such by administering the field sobriety tests\
  • circumstances of collision are sufficient to raise inference of OUI
