How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- “Finding that all alleged indicia of impairment were caused by the accident... and that Gray had adequately explained the accident to the officer, the trial court concluded that the only evidence of DUI was the presence of alcohol in Gray’s body.” (Citation omitted)
- upholding trial court’s determination that the defendant’s unsteadiness, bloodshot eyes, and dazed appearance were not credible evidence of impairment because they may have been caused by the accident and the release of the airbags
- “Finding that all alleged indicia of impairment were caused by the accident . . . and that Gray had adequately explained the accident to the officer, the trial court concluded that the only evidence of DUI was the presence of alcohol in Gray’s body.” (Citation omitted)
- presence of alcohol in driver’s body, by itself, does not support inference that driver was impaired
- in order to have probable cause for a DUI arrest, an officer must “have knowledge or reasonably trustworthy information that a suspect was actually in physical control of a moving vehicle, while under the influence of alcohol to a degree which renders him incapable of driving safely”
