State v. Powell

• 2018 Ohio 1223

Syllabus

The trial court did not err in overruling Appellant's motion to suppress. R.C.G.O. 71.31 is not vague, and the ordinance imposes an absolute duty on giving turn signals that is not conditioned on prevailing traffic conditions. The fact that Appellant failed to continuously maintain a turn signal prior to turning provided the police officer with a reasonable, articulable suspicion that Appellant had committed a traffic violation and justified the stop of Appellant's vehicle. Affirmed.
