How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- recognizing that where officer has reason to believe owner is not driving, rule does not apply
- holding that where the officer knows that the owner of the vehicle in question has a revoked license, there is reasonable suspicion to make the investigatory stop
- concluding that “[w]hen an officer observes a vehicle being driven, it is rational for him or her to infer that the owner of the vehicle is the current operator”
- holding that an actual traffic violation is not necessary to justify a stop
- holding that “the knowledge that the owner of a vehicle has a revoked license is enough to form the basis of a ‘reasonable suspicion of criminal activity’ when an officer observes the vehicle being driven”
- noting that assumptions based on information can support a stop “so long as the officer remains unaware of any facts which would render unreasonable an assumption”
