How courts have described this case
Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that where farm tractor was defined as a “motor vehicle,” it was also a “vehicle,” and hence fell within Section 66-8-102(A)’s prohibition against operating “ ‘any vehicle within this state’ ”
- holding that a farm tractor is both a motor vehicle and 5 1 a vehicle and, thus, an intoxicated person operating a farm tractor could be charged 2 with violating Section 66-8-102(A)
- holding that legislature’s exemption of farm tractors from some provisions of the Motor Vehicle Code, “but not with respect to the DWI provision, evidences a legislative intent to include farm tractors under the language of the DWI statute”
- reasoning that “a ‘motor vehicle’ is but a subset or subgroup of the larger category ‘vehicle’ ”
- “Surely, no one would argue that a farm tractor suddenly veering into oncoming traffic on a highway would be any less dangerous than an automobile operated in the same manner.”
